Both Pendikspor and Kayserispor will be looking to boost their survival hopes when they meet at Pendik Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
The hosts sit four points adrift of safety, while the visitors are four points above the relegation zone with five games remaining.
We say: Pendikspor 1-1 Kayserispor
This relegation scrap is too close to call. Pendikspor struggle at home, but desperation might ignite them. Kayserispor are winless in six and lacking momentum. We expect a tense, low-scoring affair with a draw most likely the result.

Two sides with varying ambitions will face off when Trabzonspor welcome Gaziantep to Papara Park on Sunday evening.
The visitors are battling for survival and just one point above the drop zone while the hosts are looking to hold on to the Europa League spot.
We say: Trabzonspor 1-0 Gaziantep
Trabzonspor have dominated this fixture historically, but home woes cast doubt. Gaziantep are also desperate to escape the relegation zone, but have been poor on the road. We expect a close match with Trabzonspor edging it with a narrow win.

The hosts sit three points behind fourth-placed Besiktas, while the visitors are four points clear of the relegation zone.
We say: Caykur Rizespor 2-1 Ankaragucu
Rizespor have been strong at home this season while Ankaragucu have struggled on the road. The hosts have also dominated this fixture at home over the years, making them the favourites for this affair. We expect a close game, but the home side should edge it.
