Key Players
- Carlo Holse is their primary outlet in the forward areas, with eight goals in 28 Super Lig appearances this term and three of the team's last ten goals.
- Emre Kilinc is the creative force behind Holse’s success, having provided three assists in Samsunspor’s last five games.
- Mauro Icardi is their main goal threat, with 14 in 29 Super Lig matches this term, but they are just as potent from wide areas.
Betting Insights
We are underdog favorites for over 2.5 goals and both teams to score , with odds of 1.66 and 1.61 respectively.
Prediction
- The visitors are in superior form, having won their last two games and thumped arch-rivals Fenerbahce 3-0 last time out, and their overall record this campaign is 74 points from 31 games compared to Samsunspor’s 45 from 31 games in seventh place.
- We are taking the visitors to win this contest, but with both teams in form, expect goals on both ends.
