Konyaspor enters this second round on the back of a remarkable 4-1 victory against Eyüpspor. The team is considerably stronger at home, registering 11 wins, 1 draw, and 3 losses in their last 15 home matches compared to a less impressive 4 wins, 3 draws, and 8 losses away. They have scored regularly, finding the net in 9 of their last 10 matches, albeit defensively, they have conceded goals in every one of those games. In total, Konyaspor has conceded the first goal in 5 matches, only managing to turn the score around once. With a 4-2-3-1 formation, expect Umut Nayir to lead the attack, supported by Alassane Ndao, Danijel Aleksic, and Enis Bardhi. Notably, Ufuk Akyol will miss the next match due to injury.
Team analysis: Gaziantep
Gaziantep comes into their second match after a 3-0 defeat to Galatasaray, which was not unexpected given they faced the reigning champions. As a visiting side, their recent form shows 2 wins, 4 draws, and 9 losses over the last 30 games, contrasting sharply with their home performance of 8 wins, 2 draws, and 5 losses. Over their last 10 matches in all competitions, Gaziantep secured 2 wins, 3 draws, and 5 losses. Their defence has been vulnerable, conceding in 8 of the last 10 games, highlighting the need for improvement in that area. The past 20 matches have shown a tendency for goals, with 14 of those having over 2.5 goals scored. Staffing issues including injuries to Salem M’Bakata and Nazim Sangaré, along with the suspension of goalkeeper Burak Bozan, will leave Gaziantep short-handed for this match.
