Match preview

Kasimpasa enter this game currently sitting 15th in the division after their 27 matches with their 24 points from their five wins, nine draws and 13 defeats.

Only seven games remain in the season, so a victory would be incredibly important for the hosts to move away from the relegation zone and to help confirm their Super Lig status for next season.

Kasimpasa lost last time out, before the international break, as they suffered a 2-1 defeat on the road to Besiktas.

Fans of the hosts will be well aware that they have only seen their side win twice at home this league season, and they will know this has brought about the threat of relegation; however, a third win at the Recep Tayyip Erdogan Stadyumu would go a long way in helping them avoid the drop.

Kayserispor come into this game sat in 16th in the league after their 27 matches with 23 points from their four wins, 11 draws and 12 losses.

The visitors will be well aware a victory over Kasimpasa will take them out of the relegation zone, and it would build on their win over Fatih Karagumruk last time out.

Fans of Kayserispor will gain confidence from the last time the pair squared off, as they won 3-2 at RHG Enertürk Enerji Stadyumu in November.

Further confidence will be taken from the fact the visitors have won the last three in which the two sides have squared off against each other.

However, they do have to overcome their terrible record away from home this season, as they have only secured one win all campaign, and this came in November 2025 when they beat Rizespor.
