Basaksehir will look to bury the hurt of UEFA Conference League elimination with a win when they start their 2026-27 Turkey Super Lig on matchday one against Kocaelispor. This match on Sunday at the Basaksehir Fatih Terim Stadium in Istanbul between the ‘Grey Owls’ and the ‘Gulf’ is likely to be a low-scoring one, and our prediction backs under 2.5 goals here.
With 57 points (W16, D9, L9), Basaksehir finished fifth last season and qualified for the Conference League second qualifying round. Kocaelispor ended in 10th spot with 37 points (W9, D10, L15).
Basaksehir lost 2-0 away at Inter Turku in the second leg of the Conference League qualifiers and were dumped out of the competition 3-1 on aggregate. The ‘Grey Owls’ will be looking to put that disappointment behind them and bring the vibes of four wins from their last six league games (D1, L1).
That record only gets better at home with five wins from their last six home league games (D1).
Kocaelispor, on the other hand, will be keen to forget how their previous season ended. The visitors ended with a nine-match winless run in the league (D4, L5), failing to score in five games.
Their recent away record is equally poor, with Kocaelispor losing three of their last five league trips (D2), failing to score in every defeat.
