The third round brings Amedspor and Trabzonspor together, with the visitors’ coach Fatih Tekke looking to get his team back on track in the title race after a painful European exit. The hosts have already shown they can be dangerous on their own patch, while the Black Sea side arrive with plenty of attacking momentum — and a few lingering questions.
Amedspor opened their league campaign in impressive fashion, thrashing Erzurumspor 3-0 at home. That performance was built on genuine dominance: they racked up 1.50 expected goals against just 0.23 for the visitors, fired 13 shots, and made 22 touches inside the opposition box. Dia Saba stole the show with a brace, while Gökhan Gül added the third.
The second round, however, brought a sobering 0-2 defeat away to Kocaelispor. The scoreline flattered the hosts somewhat, as Amedspor actually controlled 56% of possession, attempted 12 shots, and registered 16 touches in the opposing penalty area. Yet their creativity translated into only 0.60 xG, while Kocaelispor generated 1.31. Still, the team have already demonstrated that at home they can play with far more courage and cause problems for stronger opponents. After two matches, they sit on three points with a goal difference of 3:2.
There are no confirmed absentees for Amedspor ahead of this fixture.
Trabzonspor have also collected four points from their opening two matches, though their path has been slightly different. In the first round, they were held to a 1-1 draw by Kasimpasa despite enjoying a clear upper hand: 60% possession, 13 shots, 19 touches in the box, and 0.85 xG. The second round brought a much-needed 2-1 victory over Basaksehir, with Mohamed Salah scoring twice to become the team’s main attacking weapon.
That win was built on a noticeably sharper attacking display. Trabzonspor unleashed 19 shots and created 2.27 xG, while Basaksehir managed 1.95. With Ernest Muçi and Aral Şimşir also capable of causing damage, the visitors now pose a threat from multiple angles. However, the midweek 0-4 thrashing at the hands of Ferencváros has raised doubts about their overall stability.
Injury-wise, Trabzonspor will be without Okay Yokuşlu (muscle injury, expected back in early September), Tim Jabol-Folcarelli (meniscus, likely out until early November), and Arseniy Batagov (meniscus, targeting a return in late September). These absences are unlikely to have a major impact on the outcome.
Trabzonspor go into this match as clear favourites, but a trip to Diyarbakır is far from a routine assignment. Amedspor scored three times in their only home game so far, produced 1.50 xG, and even in defeat managed 12 shots. Expecting them to abandon their attacking instincts entirely would be a mistake.
Trabzonspor, meanwhile, are in excellent form going forward. After the frustrating draw with Kasimpasa, they scored twice against Basaksehir, created 2.27 xG, and saw Mohamed Salah notch a brace. The odds for both teams to score are listed at 1.58, with the deeper analysis referencing 1.60 — a price that implies roughly 62.5% probability. Our own assessment puts the true likelihood closer to 68%, meaning anything above 1.47 offers value.
Prediction: Both teams to score — yes, at 1.60.

Amedspor kicked off their Süper Lig campaign with a home thrashing of Erzurumspor (3-0) before losing 2-0 away to Kocaelispor. That three-point haul reflects a side that earned promotion last season by finishing second in the second division. The club has reinforced the squad with quality additions to ensure survival, and the approach is all-out attack – both in creating chances and allowing opponents space near the box.
Trabzonspor, on the other hand, opened with a 1-1 draw at Kasımpaşa and then beat Başakşehir 2-1 at home. Their squad depth is on par with Beşiktaş and Başakşehir, making a top-three finish a realistic target. They play aggressive, forward-oriented football, with shots flying in at every opportunity. I’m backing this game to clear five goals – Trabzonspor should net four times, but Amedspor’s open style means they’ll concede at least one themselves.
A draw is the most probable outcome here, and I'm backing it to finish 1-1.
Amedspor at home is a tough nut to crack, and Trabzonspor’s winning streak has to run out sometime. I’m calling the draw here at a solid 3.68 — the visitors won’t have enough left in the tank to grab all three points.

With the odds sitting at 3.68, backing the stalemate offers solid value for a match where the visitors will struggle to break through.
The only outcome I see here is a Trabzonspor win. They look too strong for Amedspor in every department, and anything less than three points would be a major surprise at that price.
