Alanyaspor v Samsunspor: visitors target top half as hosts look to pull clear | OneFootball

Alanyaspor host Samsunspor in the Süper Lig on Monday, 27 April 2026 in Antalya, with the visitors chasing a firmer hold on the top half and the hosts seeking breathing space in mid-table.

Recent meetings have been tight: three of the last five between Alanyaspor and Samsunspor ended level, with each side taking one win in that run.

Alanyaspor are winless in four across all competitions after a five-goal home victory in March, drawing twice before back-to-back defeats away to Kasımpaşa and at Beşiktaş in the cup. Samsunspor won successive league games against Eyüpspor and Beşiktaş, then went out to Trabzonspor on penalties in the cup following a draw in normal time.

Alanyaspor are without suspended midfielder Yusuf Ozdemir, trimming options in the middle. Samsunspor list forward J Assoumou as injured, which could reduce attacking depth.

Across the season, Alanyaspor have scored 35 and conceded 35, averaging 48% possession with 83.70% pass accuracy and nine clean sheets. Their route may run through delivery from Florent Hadergjonaj, who has seven assists, and support from Hwang Ui-jo with six, supplying seven-goal forward Guven Yalcin. Samsunspor have 36 goals and 39 conceded with 54% possession and 83.45% pass accuracy, and could look to control the ball while feeding Carlo Holse, their leading scorer on eight, with service from Emre Kilinc, who has five assists.

A home win would lift Alanyaspor to 36 points and could nudge them further from the relegation battle. Victory for Samsunspor would take them to 45 points and may strengthen their top-half push.
