Hence, they will be eager to get the three points on Thursday, while the visitors will love to maintain their recent good run of form.
It is strange to see Trabzonspor lying in the sixth spot with 26 points from 15 games in the Turkish Super Lig. They have been a shadow of the self that won the league title last season.

They have won three of their last four league games. It has taken them up to tenth with 19 points from 15 matches.
