DomainJava.com – Gaziantep vs Adana Demirspor prediction in Turkey Super Lig match, Gaziantep will try to maintain their strong home form when they host struggling Adana Demirspor at Gaziantep Stadium on Sunday in the Turkish Super League.
The hosts continue to climb up the league standings and are now far from relegation worries, while the visitors continue to languish at the bottom of the table.
Gaziantep have carried their strong form into the new year, building on a winning streak in their final two games of 2024 against Antalyaspor in the Super League and Orduspor in the Turkish Cup.
Selcuk Inan’s side opened 2025 with a 2-2 league draw against Kasimpasa before securing a dominant 4-0 win over Istanbulspor in a cup tie, with their performance leaving them eighth in the table with 22 points from 17 games.
The hosts have been particularly impressive at Gaziantep Stadium, where they have remained unbeaten in all competitions since their first league game of the season – Inan’s men have won their last eight home games, including five in the league, making Gaziantep Stadium a fortress.
Historically, matches between these two teams have been tight – while Adana Demirspor boasts 12 wins compared to Gaziantep’s 10 wins in 30 meetings, the hosts will take confidence from their emphatic 6-1 win in their last encounter.
Another win on Sunday would mark the first time Gaziantep has beaten Adana in back-to-back matches since the 2004-05 season when they met in the third division.
Meanwhile, Adana Demirspor suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat to Istanbul Basaksehir in their first league match of the year, halting the momentum they had built under Mustafa Dalci.
Since his appointment at the end of November, the Blue Lightnings have secured three wins, more than their total this season in all competitions prior to his arrival.
This will provide room for optimism for Adana, who are stuck at the bottom of the Super Lig standings and already 14 points adrift of safety at this stage of the campaign.
However, the visitors have a glimmer of hope ahead of Sunday’s match, as they have been more prolific on the road this season, most recently picking up a 2-1 win over Hatayspor in their last away game.
The Blue Lightnings are also unbeaten in their last five away games against Gaziantep in all competitions, giving room for more optimism.
Gaziantep will be without Sokratis Dioudis (thigh), Godfrey Bitok (foot), Enric Saborit (ankle) and Emre Tasdemir (muscle).
The hosts will also be without Bruno Viana and Christopher Lungoyi, who are suspended due to an accumulation of yellow cards, although Deian Sorescu will return after serving his ban.
For Adana Demirspor, Andrew Gravillon is out for the entire season with a cruciate ligament injury, while Breyton Fougeu is also out.
Yusuf Barasi, the visitors’ top scorer with five league goals, will be crucial to their chances of pulling off an upset.
