Alanyaspor Aims to Halt Winless Streak Against Relegation-Threatened Antalyaspor
Alanyaspor faces Antalyaspor on May 3, 2026, seeking to end a four-game winless run in the Super Lig. Can Joao Pereira's side secure vital points against relegation-battling hosts?
Alanyaspor will face Antalyaspor in a crucial Super Lig encounter on May 3, 2026, at Antalya Stadyumu, aiming to break their four-game winless streak. The visitors, currently 12th in the standings, are looking to solidify their position against a relegation-threatened Antalyaspor side sitting 14th.
Sami Ugurlu's Antalyaspor is in a precarious situation, battling to avoid relegation after a disappointing season. With only one victory in their last seven league fixtures and three successive defeats, including a recent 2-0 loss to Goztepe SK, the Scorpions are desperate for points. They are currently outside the bottom three only on goal difference.
Despite holding the joint-worst home record in the division, Antalyaspor has shown some resilience at Antalya Stadyumu, securing eight points from their most recent six home fixtures. This upcoming match against Alanyaspor is imperative for their survival hopes, especially with a challenging trip to league leaders Galatasaray still on their schedule.
Joao Pereira's Alanyaspor, despite being five points clear of the relegation zone, arrives with its own set of challenges. The club has failed to win in their last four games, suffering a 3-2 defeat at home to Samsunspor and also losing to Besiktas in the Turkish Cup, conceding three goals in successive matches.
Alanyaspor's away form has been particularly unusual, marked by 10 draws from 15 encounters on the road. Their sole away victory this season came all the way back on September 13 against Konyaspor. This fixture presents an opportunity for them to improve their away record and secure their Super Lig status.
This Super Lig clash holds immense importance for both teams. Antalyaspor desperately needs a victory to climb out of the relegation battle, while Alanyaspor seeks to regain momentum and ensure their safety, making for a tense and competitive encounter.
