Trabzonspor come up to the Cup fight with 12-match undefeated streak, having recorded 10 victories and two draws since the 25th of October. The team got 1:1 draw against Kardemir Karabuk in the latest game within the Turkish Super Lig, sitting now on the seventh position in the table with 29 points taken after 17 clashes played. Trabzonspor entered the Turkish Cup on the 1/32 final stage, having broken Corum 6:0 and then defeated Erzurum BB 4:0 and 5:1. The club collected five triumphs alongside with five draws and two losses in 12 encounters conducted on the road in this season. Trabzonspor’s unbeaten series at away grounds counts for six fights covering four wins and two draws.
Trabzonspor have not been defeated by Konyaspor across five latest head-to-heads, having won three home battles and got two draws on the road. Taking into account the head-to-head statistics as well as the current competitive form of the rivals, I would expect for extension of the visitor’s unbeaten run in the Wednesday game.
Prediction for the match: Trabzonspor to win with +0.5 Asian handicap.
