Konyaspor welcome Trabzonspor to the Konya Büyükşehir Belediye Stadium on Monday evening in the Trendyol Süper Lig, with the table making the stakes pretty clear. Konyaspor sit 9th on 37 points and are trying to keep nudging away from the lower half, while Trabzonspor arrive in 3rd on 65 points with Champions League-style pressure at the top end of the division. One side is chasing security and a respectable finish. The other wants to keep pace with the league’s leading pack. That difference alone gives this one a bit of bite.
There’s more on the line than just points. Konyaspor have steadied themselves well enough to stop the season from drifting, and İlhan Palut will know another positive result against one of the division’s strongest travelling sides would go a long way. Trabzonspor, under Fatih Tekke, have built a platform for a serious run at the upper reaches, but away trips like this don’t come with any freebies. They’ve spent the season proving they can handle pressure. Now they need to do it again.
The broader mood around both clubs is decent. Konyaspor have no interest in getting dragged into a scrap, while Trabzonspor’s position near the top means every dropped point carries a sting. It’s a proper league game with a clear hierarchy, but not a straightforward one. Konyaspor are at home, they’ve been awkward enough there, and recent meetings between these sides have had goals in them.
Konyaspor come into this on a neat little run that’s taken the edge off a messy season. Their last six have produced four wins and two draws, and the variety is important. They beat Kocaelispor away 2-1, edged Gençlerbirliği 1-0 at home, came from nowhere in a 2-2 draw at Samsunspor, then turned around and thumped Fatih Karagümrük 3-0 at home. After that came a clean 2-0 win at Antalyaspor, before the goalless home cup draw with Fenerbahçe on 21 April. That’s not a lucky sequence. It’s a side that’s found a way to compete in different game states.
The last few results also tell you something about how Palut’s team are approaching matches now. They’re not just hanging in. They’re making their moments count. The 3-0 against Fatih Karagümrük was the kind of clean, efficient home performance that supporters love, while the away wins at Antalyaspor and Kocaelispor suggest they’ve got enough organisation and bite to cause problems even when they’re not the dominant side. They’ve now gone eight matches unbeaten, and that sort of run does wonders for confidence. No wonder the mood’s calmer.
Their home record is solid rather than spectacular, but it’s competitive: five wins, six draws and four defeats, with 19 goals scored and 15 conceded. That’s a decent return at this level. They’re not blowing teams away in Konya every week, yet they rarely look soft either. The shape seems fairly clear too: Konyaspor can score at home, and they’re usually good for at least one opening. The flip side? Too many draws for comfort, and not enough clean-cut control to make them feel like a banker in any single fixture. Still, at 19 home goals and only 15 conceded, they’ve got enough about them to make life awkward for stronger visitors.
Trabzonspor’s recent results are the kind that keep a title or top-four chase moving without always making headlines. Their last six have brought three wins and three draws, and there’s a clear pattern of control. They beat Çaykur Rizespor 1-0 at home, went to Eyüpspor and won 1-0, then pulled off a strong 2-1 home victory over Galatasaray. Since then they’ve drawn three straight: 1-1 at Alanyaspor, 1-1 at home to Başakşehir FK, and 0-0 away to Samsunspor in the cup. That’s a side that’s tough to beat, even when the attack isn’t fully humming.
That three-draw spell is worth paying attention to. It doesn’t scream crisis at all. It does hint at a team that can dominate stretches of games without always putting opponents away. In the cup tie at Samsunspor, they had more of the ball’s worth of the chances and still didn’t find a breakthrough, even before Cherif Ndiaye’s second-yellow dismissal. Against Başakşehir FK and Alanyaspor, they also had to settle for a point. So while the results remain strong, there’s a slight edge of frustration there. Can they turn control into two or three goals away from home? That’s the question.
On the road, though, Trabzonspor are excellent. Their away record reads 10 wins, three draws and just two defeats, with 29 goals scored and 18 conceded. That’s the profile of a serious team. They travel well, they score regularly, and they don’t leave themselves exposed too often. The numbers are a touch better than Konyaspor’s home baseline, which matters here. Trabzonspor have also scored away in bunches often enough to trust them to create something in Konya. They don’t need to be spectacular. They just need to be efficient. And they usually are.
This fixture has had a clear leaning towards goals, and that’s hard to ignore. The last meeting ended Trabzonspor 3-1 Konyaspor in November 2025, while Konyaspor did edge the return meeting 1-0 in March 2025. Before that, there were 3-2 and 3-1 scorelines in Trabzonspor’s favour, plus a 2-1 win for the Black Sea side and a 2-1 home success for Konyaspor in April 2023. Even the 2-2 draw in 2022 fitted the pattern. These games don’t tend to drift quietly into the background. They usually open up.
That’s important for a BTTS call. Nine of the last 10 meetings have seen both teams score, and Trabzonspor haven’t kept a clean sheet in 12 straight against Konyaspor. That’s a glaring trend. Konyaspor know how to land a punch in this fixture. Trabzonspor usually do too. You’d expect both defences to be tested here, not just one.
We’re backing Both Teams To Score at 4/7 for this one, and it feels like the cleanest angle. Konyaspor have found a rhythm in front of goal, especially at home, and they’ve scored in enough recent games to trust them to nick one here. Trabzonspor, meanwhile, almost always find a route to goal on the road. They’ve also made a habit of turning these meetings into open affairs. That combination is hard to walk past.
The projected 1-1 scoreline fits the shape of the game. Konyaspor’s home record says they’re capable of holding their own, while Trabzonspor’s away numbers show they’re rarely blanked for long. There’s a slight tension with Trabzonspor’s overall strength, because they’re the better side on paper and could win if they sharpen up in the final third. Still, the recent run of draws away from home and that stubborn H2H pattern point to a match where both attacks get their say. If you want a small alternative, Trabzonspor to score first has some appeal too, but BTTS is the safer and stronger call.
