Alanyaspor and Bodrumspor will go head-to-head in Round 30 of the Turkish Super Lig, with both sides desperate for a victory that could prove vital in their battle against relegation.
The hosts currently sit 14th in the table with 31 points, holding a slender one-point advantage over Bodrumspor, who occupy the final spot in the relegation zone.
We say: Alanyaspor 1-1 Bodrumspor
This will be Pereira’s first home game at the helm of Alanyaspor, and the recent derby defeat should have provided him with valuable insights to refine his tactical approach moving forward.
That being said, Bodrumspor have demonstrated resilience and an attacking threat despite back-to-back defeats, and given their fighting spirit and ability to find the net, we believe they have what it takes to compete with the hosts and, at the very least, secure a draw.

Eyupspor will aim to keep their European ambitions alive when they visit the Mersin Stadyumu to face Hatayspor in their gameweek 30 Turkish Super Lig fixture on Sunday.
The relegation-threatened hosts are 18th in the table, 11 points from safety, while the visitors are fifth, three points adrift of Besiktas, who occupy the final European spot.
We say: Hatayspor 0-1 Eyupspor
Hatayspor have improved in recent weeks, but the problem of inconsistency still persists, and given the quality within the Eyupspor ranks, we predict that the visiting side will claim a slim 1-0 win.

The Turkish Super Lig‘s most intense rivalry will be reignited as Fenerbahce welcome Trabzonspor to the Sukru Saracoglu Stadium in Round 30, with the hosts desperate to avoid any further slip-ups in their title pursuit.
Both teams head into this clash following fiery cup encounters with contrasting outcomes, setting the stage for a thrilling showdown on Sunday.
We say: Fenerbahce 4-2 Trabzonspor
Fenerbahce are highly motivated, especially with Galatasaray now within reach, and we believe they will secure victory here despite Trabzonspor’s resurgence under Tekke.
The hosts boast impressive attacking depth, which has proven crucial in recent weeks, and we expect that firepower to make the difference once again.
