Prediction Konyaspor vs Samsunspor 2025/2026 – Betting Tips for the Super Lig on 02/11/2025

A tight Super Lig tussle in Konya

Konyaspor welcome Samsunspor to the Konya Büyükşehir Belediye Stadyumu on November 2 in what shapes up as a compact, tense Super Lig fixture. The home side sit eighth after ten matches with 14 points, while Samsunspor occupy a healthier fifth place on 17 points — a small gap, but one that speaks to Samsunspor’s consistency this campaign. Referee Ali Şansalan will take charge at a venue that can hold 42,000 but will instead host the real battle on the pitch: solidity from Samsunspor against the home ambition of Konyaspor.

Konyaspor have oscillated between wins and losses of late; their recent cup victory over Bingölspor (4-2) and a league win at Gençlerbirliği show they can hit peaks, but back-to-back losses earlier in October and only one clean sheet in ten league fixtures paint a picture of a side that still leaks chances. Samsunspor, by contrast, are hard to beat — just one loss in ten and three clean sheets already — and they arrive in Konya after scraping a 1-1 draw with Rizespor. That resilience appears in the numbers: Samsunspor have conceded fewer goals overall and rack up draws far more often than Konyaspor.

What the stats whisper

Both teams create chances at similar rates — total shots and shots inside the box are almost deadlocked — but Konyaspor’s home matches show a higher tendency for open games, with over 2.5 goals in 70% of their fixtures. Samsunspor, meanwhile, are draw-prone and defensively tighter on average, with fewer goals conceded. Their last head-to-head in February ended 0-1 to Samsunspor, a reminder that matches between these sides can be low-scoring and decided by narrow margins.

For readers who want to sharpen their approach to markets, consult targeted guidance on soccer betting tips and the choice of markets, and if you focus on goal lines, the piece on the right time to place bets on goal markets is worth a quick read.

Betting suggestion (1x2): Given Samsunspor’s defensive profile and the frequency of draws for both teams — plus a recent H2H low-scoring outcome — the most persuasive value comes on the Draw at 3.30. It’s an attractive price for a fixture where both sides have shown an ability to grind out results; back the stalemate for a controlled, value-oriented play.
