Two sides in the Turkish Super Lig relegation zone will face off on Saturday when Giresunspor welcome Istanbulspor to the Cotanak Stadium.

The hosts are winless in their last eight league games, while Istanbulspor have lost all of their previous four matches.

We say: Giresunspor 1-1 Istanbulspor

With both sides finding victories hard to come by, we think a cagey contest could result in a draw that would end Istanbulspor's losing run.

On Saturday, Galatasaray will look to extend their unbeaten home run to four league games when they face their local rivals Besiktas in a Turkish Super Lig contest.

The visitors, meanwhile, have the chance to claim consecutive victories after thrashing Umraniyespor 5-2 last weekend.

We say: Galatasaray 2-1 Besiktas

After winning four of the last five home meetings with Besiktas, we think that Galatasaray will edge out their rivals to claim the derby bragging rights.
