1.61Tip and bets
The hosts have not been able to show their best game in recent matches. They only managed to beat Erzincanspor from the Second League in the cup match, and had to settle for a draw in the other matches. Now they will have to face a strong opponent in the person of Istanbulspor. The visitors were whipping boys in the Super League, but at the First League level they remain quite a formidable force. The Istanbul club has shown itself well in recent matches of the First League, and has won the last two face-to-face matches. We believe that Istanbulspor is closer to victory here.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (0) on Istanbulspor for 2.10
Bet on total
Corum has not been particularly productive for a long time, and has had huge problems in terms of creating and realizing their own moments. Istanbulspor also does not often have productive matches. The team relies primarily on defense, and will definitely not open up on the road.
Our prediction is total under 2.5 goals for 1.75
Bet on corners
Most likely, the opponents will play defensively, which means that many corner flag passes are not expected. We suggest betting on the total under this indicator.
Our prediction is total under 9.5 corners for 1.72
