5 years ago the team was still in the Turkish Süper Lig. But you could only hold out there for one season before you had to go back to the 2nd division. There you seem to be a typical midfield team, this is also shown by the last placements. You have to struggle more with relegation than with the playoff places. This year, however, this could change, because after a very decent season so far, you are on a good 10th place. With 23 points in their account, they are only 3 points short of a playoff place. In the game against Kocaelispor, the aim is to further improve their good home record.

Kocaelispor - will the march through?
Two years ago the club was in the 4th division in Turkey. After being promoted to the 3rd division in 2020, they were promoted directly to the 2nd division last year. It is no longer as easy there as in previous years. Nevertheless, the club is selling very well and has so far nothing to do with relegation. In 9th place, they still have a good chance of making the playoffs. They are currently only 2 points short of this. A win could bring them up to 6th place. However, to do this, they have to improve their performance away from home in particular. As with the opponent, Kocaelispor's offensive is still extremely difficult.

Kocaelispor - Statistics & Current Form
In the past few weeks, Kocaelispor has squandered all momentum from the strong start to the season. Because Kocaeli lost four of the last six games in the second-rate TFF 1st Lig, the aspirant from the province of the same name has now slipped to ninth place in the table. Last week there was only one point in the showdown against promotion competitor Eyüpspor.

But there have already been four defeats on foreign terrain during this period. Most recently it even hailed three away bankruptcies in a row. Including the match against potential relegation candidate Altinordu Izmir, in which Kocaelispor conceded a total of three goals. Previously, Kocaeli had prevailed in his own stadium against Erzurum BB, meanwhile in third place.

Will Kocaelispor succeed in the next away coup in Adana?
In the last few weeks, the Black-Greens defensive line made a particularly bad impression. After all, the doorbell of the provincial club rang a total of nine times in the last six match days. It is quite possible that this negative trend will continue in Adana, especially since Kocaeli only kept the clean slate once in the last seven away games against Friday's opponent.

KSK head coach Mustafa Resit Akcay is nonetheless likely to insist on the same starting line-up that was used in recent weeks. On Friday evening, the 63-year-old also has to do without his Dino Ndlovu, one of the most dangerous offensive players in the TFF 1st Lig with nine goals.

The team's shape curve is pointing downwards
With 7 wins, 3 draws and 7 defeats, as well as a goal difference of 19:20 goals, they have similar statistics to their opponents. Their disadvantage is that they have to play away. In the away table you are only in 15th place. In 7 games they managed only one win and 2 more draws. 4th time you have already drawn the short straw away. The goal difference is only 5: 9 goals. This is the 2nd weakest away offensive in the league. They have been without a win for 4 away games, the last 3 were even lost. In general, the team only won one of the last 6 league games.

Adanaspor - statistics & current form:
At the end of the first half of the season, Adanaspor is now aiming for the next points. The home game against the direct promotion competitor from Kocaeli comes in handy for Adana. After all, Adanaspor can overtake Friday's opponent in the event of success and, in the best possible scenario, even draw level with the sixth of the table from Istanbul.

Will the home strength also be underpinned against Kocaeli?
It is quite possible that the current series will continue in their own stadium against Kocaelispor. Since August 1998, Adanaspor has only lost two of their last seven home games against their Friday opponents. Including the most recent match as part of the "Türkiye Kupasi”, in which the hosts from Adana surprisingly lost their home advantage.

Even against the strong offensive by Istanbulspor - after all, the fifth strongest attacking division in the league - Adana remained without conceding a goal. It would therefore be more than daring to predict a goal-rich encounter at Adanaspor vs. Kocaelispor. Sait Karafirtinalar only has to go without Berkan Firat on Christmas Eve. There are no further failures to complain about.

With a stake of six units, we place our tip at odds of 2.50 on a home win at Adanaspor vs. Kocaelispor. Alternatively, bets on a low-goal match are recommended. After all, the mark of three goals in the last five second division games with Adanaspor participation has not been broken.
Forecast
On paper there is only one point separating the two teams. Adanaspor is very strong at home while Kocaelispor only won one game away. With a double chance bet 1 / X you should therefore be on the safe side. Both teams also have difficulties on the offensive. We therefore expect rather few goals.
