Kasimpasa take on the visitors Istanbul Basaksehir at the Recep Tayyip Erdogan Stadium in the 2nd tour of the Super Lig. The match will be played in Istanbul on Monday, August 20th.
Kasimpasa have earned a reputation of a tough middle team for the last few years. They often play better in front of their home crowd. The Apaches finished last season with 43 points to their credit and they got 28 of them on their home field. There are a lot of high skill players in the squad of Kasimpasa. For example, Trezeguet who has been the goal for a lot of top clubs lately. Mbaye Diagne is also playing for Kasimpasa, he scored twelve goals in seventeen played matches for the Apaches last season. The midfield line of the team bases on Ilhan Depe who has been performing in the Super Lig for years. In the first tour of the new season Kasimpasa had been losing with a 0-2 score to Rizespor by the 75th minute of that match but made a comeback in the end and won with a 3-2 score. That was a great moral boost for the team.

Last Thursday Istanbul Basakshehir lost to Burnley in the second leg match of the UEFA Europa League third qualification round and spent a lot of energy there. It could very well happen that the shape of the team will not be enough to compete with Kasimpasa. However, Istanbul Basaksehir have been one of the best Turkish clubs for the last several years. They had won the silver in the 2016/17 Super Lig season and won the bronze in the 2017/2018 season. The team has been progressing a lot lately.
Kasimpasa rarely lose in front of their home crowd. They had seventeen home fixtures last season and lost only five of them. The same thing happened two years ago. Istanbul Basaksehur played for 120 minutes against Burnley last Thursday and they just didn`t have enough time to recover from that. The Apaches on the other hand are a tough middle team who often show good performances against the top clubs.
Prediction for the match: Kasimpasa to win.
