Fatih Karagümrük - Gençlerbirliği betting tips and odds

Fatih Karagümrük are expected to win here, but we can’t call such betting predictions completely foolproof. Gençlerbirliği may surprise us yet, and even a tie game seems a decent possibility from where we’re standing.

Gençlerbirliği are heading into a difficult fight, but it’s far from hopeless. They may need to bring their best, but the match can go any way at this point. The odds of an away win are 3.25 right now, which means the favourites are far from clear.

Fatih Karagümrük managed to hold the line against Konyaspor throughout the first half of their previous away game. They didn’t have nearly as much luck in the second, however, and their defence crumbled against the superior opposition, which all resulted in a 5:1 defeat.

Gençlerbirliği lost their previous home game against Galatasaray with a considerably high 0:2 margin. Considering the overwhelming betting odds they were up against, though, the fact that they spent most of the match on the back foot is not too surprising.

The biggest issue the hosts have is a lacklustre backline. They’re currently on a bit of a trend of conceding a lot of goals – over 5 across their 3 previous matches, to be exact.

Maintaining their defences has been a bit of a struggle for Gençlerbirliği lately. They ended up conceding 5 goals over the 3 most recent matches alone, leaving many fans disappointed.

The two teams already met this season in the Super Lig, with Fatih Karagümrük taking the victory. It’s understandable why most bookies consider them the favourites, though the advantage is not overwhelming.

Before going for any betting predictions, we need to make note of the overall high number of prior injuries. Both sides have been hit: Aykut Özer, Alparslan Erdem, Jimmy Durmaz, Vegar Eggen Hedenstad for the hosts, and Dominik Furman, Daniel Candeias, Metehan Mert for the visitors. Needless to say, this may impact the teams’ performance.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 1.77 if you use the 10Bet sportsbook.
