Trabzonspor vs Ankaragucu Prediction (26.05.2024)

We’ve arrived at the final day of the Turkish Super Lig season and what a journey it’s been. There have been highs and lows for all 20 clubs in the top flight and as we look ahead to Sunday, it’s clear to see that there’s still plenty left to be decided in this division. Today, we’ll be taking a look at what promises to be a fascinating clash between Trabzonspor and Ankaragucu.

It’s taken some time, but it really does feel like Trabzonspor are beginning to establish themselves as the best of the rest outside of Fenerbahce and Galatasaray. Of course, we all know that they’re still recovering from defeat in the Turkish Cup final, but the foundations are in place for them to continue to grow in the months and years that lie ahead.

After overcoming defeat from the cup final, Trabzonspor will just want to give their fans something to cheer about here. They can’t lose control of 3rd place and they’re over 30 points behind 2nd, so for them, they’ll just want to win and send people home happy.

Ankaragucu, originating from the namesake city, are a multi-sport club that operate in many different fields away from football. On the pitch, though, they’re in a bit of trouble. They have some real work to do on the final day if they want to keep their spot in the top flight, and if they don’t, they’ll only have themselves to blame for how they’ve sadly fallen away from the pack.

Ankaragucu just need to focus on trying to win this game of football. If they are able to do that, they’ll definitely be safe in the top flight for another year. If they draw, Hatayspor need a big turnaround. If they lose, they could easily fall through the trap door.

On the final day of the season, you can throw the rule book swiftly out of the window. There’s so much on the line and with the stakes being that high, and with these sides being confident going forward, we can’t see an outcome other than over 2.5 goals scored and a whole lot of entertainment for neutrals.
