"Kasimpasha"
The Apaches are 10th in the standings, with 9 points scored. They failed the start of the season, after which they changed the head coach and the team's affairs went well. They beat Hatayspor at home (1-0), and on the road they coped with Antalyaspor (2-0). After that, Kasimpasha lost in the Istanbul derby to Galatasaray (2:3), but before the international break, they prevailed over Umraniespor (2:1).
Gaziantep

On the road, Gaziantep lost to Galatasaray (1:2) and Trabzonspor (2:3), between these meetings they drew at home with Umraniespor (1:1). During the international break, Erol Bulut's team drew with Malatyaspor in a friendly match (1:1).
