Umraniyespor will attempt to record their first win of the season when they host Fatih Karagumruk on Saturday.
The home side sit bottom of the Turkish Super Lig, while the visitors head into the weekend in 13th with nine points to their name.
We say: Umraniyespor 1-2 Fatih Karagumruk
Although Umraniyespor ended their four-match losing streak at home last time out, we still do not think they will have enough to pick up their first win of the season here.
Six points separate the sides heading into this clash, and we expect Fatih Karagumruk's quality to shine through.

Champions Trabzonspor welcome fellow European competitors Sivasspor to the Senol Gunes Stadyumu for a Turkish Super Lig clash on Saturday.
After cruising to the title last season, it has been a stuttering start for the side from Trabzon, but results have picked up in recent weeks.
We say: Trabzonspor 2-0 Sivasspor
No Turkish side has come and beat Trabzonspor on their own patch in over 18 months, and despite Sivasspor's shock win at Basaksehir in their last outing on the road, a repeat is very unlikely.
Trabzonspor's four Super Lig home games have produced just six goals this season though, so attacking opportunities may be at a premium, meaning the hosts will have to take their chances when they come.

Last season's best performing Istanbul-based clubs meet at the Sukru Saracoglu Stadium in the Turkish Super Lig on Saturday, when Fenerbahce host Istanbul Basaksehir.
Both sides currently sit a point off league leaders Adana Demirspor with a game in hand each, after a quarter of the season played.
We say: Fenerbahce 0-0 Istanbul Basaksehir
Both teams have been really tough to beat this season, and despite Fenerbahce's superb attack, Basaksehir's incredible defensive record shows they are capable of keeping most teams at bay.
Basaksehir won both fixtures without conceding last season, but may be more cautious here with a huge fixture against Fiorentina on the horizon.
