Genclerbirligi vs Erzurumspor tips and predictions

Neither side holding solid claims

There's not much between Genclerbirligi and Erzurumspor in the 1. Lig. The hosts are in ninth place with 44 points, compared to their opponents who are in tenth place on 41 points.

Anything could happen here. The evidence is leaning towards the draw. With both sides looking strong in defence, a goalless stalemate is the pick.

These sides have impressed at the back. Having created something of a fortress at home, Genclerbirligi have conceded at an average of just 0.7 goals per game over their last 3 matches. Meanwhile Erzurumspor have conceded only 5 goals in their last 13 matches.

In previous matches between these sides 2 of the last 6 have ended in a draw.

The match could develop into a battle of attrition with the two sides ultimately being pretty even. It might not be a widespread opinion but the No BTTS option seems sensible.

Genclerbirligi have drawn 8 of their last 15 matches on their own soil, most recently when they drew 1-1 with Adanaspor AS at home earlier this month. Erzurumspor have drawn 8 of their last 19 matches. Their most recent stalemate was when they drew with Sakaryaspor last Monday and while the prediction is for any stalemate, a scoreline of 0-0 shouldn't be dismissed here. It isn't the most exciting thing you'll read today and it feels like a match to sit on the fence about. Stalemate beckons after what looks likely to be a tightly contested match-up.
