11th-placed Istanbul Basaksehir host 10th-placed Kocaelispor in this Turkish Super Lig matchday 11 clash on Friday. Can the Grey Owls defeat the Gulf for their first home victory of the season? Here is our prediction.
Istanbul Basaksehir have endured a grim start to their campaign in the Turkish top flight this term. A run of just two wins, four draws and eight defeats has them drop to the bottom half of the table after 10 games. However, they will look to secure their first back-to-back wins for the first time this season in Friday's clash after defeating 10-man Antalyaspor 4-0 in their last game.
The last time they clashed with Kocaelispor in a competitive fixture was in 2009 and they won 3-2. Before the start of the current season, they also eased past the Gulf in a club friendly, winning 5-2.
Newly promoted side Kocaelispor have found their rhythm recently after a poor start to their return to the Turkish top flight. Selçuk İnan’s side endured a winless run in their first seven games this season before finally breaking the deadlock against Eyupspor.
They have now won their last three league matches, including a 2-0 victory over Alanyaspor in their most recent outing. However, they have suffered defeats in four of their five Super Lig away matches this season.

Our Istanbul Basaksehir vs Kocaelispor Prediction
Istanbul Basaksehir will look to consolidate their gains in the last two games after a largely poor start to the season. The Grey Owls capped off their turnaround with a commanding 4-0 away win over Alanyaspor last week and we expect another strong showing from them on Friday.
Despite their recent strong results, Kocaelispor still head into this match as underdogs. They have struggled on the road and will find it difficult against a more experienced Istanbul Basaksehir side well versed in Turkish top-flight football. Hence, our Istanbul Basaksehir vs Kocaelispor prediction is Istanbul Basaksehir wins.
