Trabzonspor vs Sivasspor prediction 20.01.2025 | Super Lig

• Competition: Super Lig
• Date: Monday, 20th January, 2025
• Kickoff: 17:00 UK / 18:00 CET
• Venue: Papara Park (Trabzon)

Trabzon have been in the upper half of the league's table in the last few years, even winning the title in the 2021/22 season. However, this season, the popular "Black Sea Storm" are not even close to the desired level, as they are in 10th place with only 22 points in 18 rounds. Right now, they are already nine points away from the European spots. So, to close the gap, these games at home against out-of-form teams like Sivasspor are an absolute must-win.

Sivasspor came to this season after a really good one when they finished seventh. But this season has been a disaster as they sit in 20th place with 18 points - only four points away from the danger zone. To be fair, they are only a win away from moving to around the middle of the table. However, considering they are on a seven-game winless streak, we now see them more as a relegation contender than a mid-table team.

Trabzonspor vs Sivasspor pick: Trabzonspor to win and cover the -1 AH spread

Trabzonspor had their ups and downs this season, but it seems they are getting better. They won the last two games against Antalyaspor and Alanyaspor, with a combined goal difference of 8:0, and they have won three of the last four games as well. Also, at home, Trabzonspor have been great, losing only to Fenerbahce in ten games in the domestic competitions.

Meanwhile, Sivasspor are in terrible form. Their only win in the last nine games was in the Cup against Keciorengucu - a second-tier team. Also, away from home, Sivasspor lost three games in a row with eight conceded goals - 2.7 per game.

Considering Trabzonspor's good form, excellent home record, and Sivasspor's terrible road record, we believe that the hosts should secure a comfortable win at Papara Park.
