Preview: Umraniyespor vs. Adana Demirspor - prediction, team news, lineups

Sports Mole previews Sunday's Turkish Super Lig clash between Umraniyespor and Adana Demirspor, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

Aiming to avoid a sixth straight loss, relegation-threatened Umraniyespor welcome Adana Demirspor to the Umraniye Belediyesi Sehir Stadyumu on Sunday.

Meanwhile, the away side make the journey aiming to extend their current their run of five matches across all competitions since they were last beaten.


Match preview

Adana Demirspor played out a goalless stalemate against Ukrainian side Dynamo Kyiv in a warm-up fixture at the Mardan Sports Complex on Sunday afternoon.

Vincenzo Montella's men were on the back foot for the majority of the contest but they stood firm to secure a share of the spoils in what was a cagey affair.

Prior to that, the Blue Lightnings held city rivals Fenerbahce to a 2-2 draw which saw them move up to fifth place in the Turkish Super Lig table.

Next on the menu is the challenge of an opposing outfit who are without a victory in the last six meetings between the teams, suffering defeat in five of them.

Ahead of a crunch encounter against fellow European hopefuls Trabzonspor, Sunday's visitors will be looking to set the tone with a dominant display here.

Umraniyespor saw their downward spiral continue as they suffered an agonising 3-2 defeat against league leaders Galatasaray when the sides locked horns at the Nef Stadium on three Fridays ago.

Recep Ucar's men took 1-0 and 2-1 leads but were pegged back on either occasion by Abdulkerim Bardakci and Mauro Icardi, before Icardi grabbed his second of the game seven minutes from time to settle matters.

Having picked up just 14 points from their 21 matches so far, last year's 1. Lig runners-up have not fared well in their debut campaign amongst the Turkish elite, sitting eight points adrift of safety at the moment.

Still in search of their first victory on home turf in 2023, this weekend is as good a time as any for Sunday's hosts to get themselves back on track to avoid being left too far behind in the race for survival.

Team News

Durel Avounou received his marching orders in Umraniyespor's last league outing, and the Congo DR international is ineligible to take part on Sunday.

Allyson Aires is also unavailable as he continues to nurse an ankle injury, which he picked up 43 minutes into his side's defeat to Galatasaray a month ago.

Fredrik Gulbrandsen is set to miss a fifth game on the bounce for Adana due to a muscle problem, but the forward is not far off making his return to action.

January arrival Cherif Ndiaye found the back of the net on his debut for the hosts, and he could be rewarded with a place in the starting XI here.

Umraniyespor possible starting lineup:
Ozdemir; Atasayar, Epureanu, Sackey, Popov; Mrsic, Yilmaz, Gurbulak; Ayik, Nayir, Geraldo

Adana Demirspor possible starting lineup:
Ozbir; Svensson, Cetin, Guler, Rodrigues; Akintola, Stambouli, Ndiaye, Onyekuru; Akbaba, Belhanda


SM words green background

We say: Umraniyespor 1-2 Adana Demirspor

Despite their struggles this term, Umraniyespor have found the back of the net on a consistent basis and we are backing them to register once again. However, we also fancy the away side to come away with all three points, albeit narrowly.
