Turk Telekom vs Petkim: Analysis and Prediction – Turk Telekom and Petkim will play an Turkish Super League game in round 11.
Turk Telekom vs Petkim Odds
Turk Telekom Team News
After the last very successful season, Turk Telekom had unrealistic ambitions to continue in the same rhythm in the next one. Reigning vice-champion of the EuroCup was on the verge of entering the EuroLeague, and the success of Erdem Can blindsided the club’s management a little.
Can left and was rewarded with a contract at Anadolu Efes, and was replaced by Nenad Canak. Serbian coach did not have as good a season as his predecessor, which was expected, given that the best players left for stronger clubs, while the selection of new players was not so good. Canak was fired after a short period, but even after that, Turk Telekom did not manage to consolidate. The defeat against the powerless Slask by 80:71 on their floor also speaks of this. Nevertheless, Turk Telekom enters this duel in a good mood, having outplayed Cluj-Napoca by 95:84, with 24 points from James Palmer.
It is certain that if Turk Telekom continues with setbacks like against Slask, a new coaching change will follow. If that happens, the situation will be significantly more difficult for all players, and it’s not that simple either. Turk Telekom is ninth in Group B of the EuroCup with 2-8, while it is 5-5 in the Turkish Super League.
Petkim Team News
Petkim has been one of the most difficult rivals for everyone in the Turkish Super League for years. This team may not have a big name, or big players, but it can cause problems for anyone. Mostly because of the extremely fast rhythm in which they play.
If the rival allows Petkim to drag them into such a game, there is usually a problem. Anadolu Efes, Fenerbahce and Besiktas also felt that. There were three defeats against Petkim, but in each game this team put up a lot of resistance. This especially applies to the duel against Anadolu Efes, which ended after extra time. The two-time European champion won 101:92, after letting go of a double-digit lead in the fourth quarter. David Efianayi scored 18 points, Mahir Agwa and Peyton Aldridge added 14 each.
Undoubtedly, this team will not change its tactics against Turk Telekom either. With a fast game and modern basketball, they will try to harm the visibly shaken team, which has not yet found a way out of the crisis.

Turk Telekom vs Petkim Prediction
Considering the form Turk Telekom is in, it is very difficult to expect an easy win in this game. It is true that they have the same record as Petkim, but it should be taken into account that Petkim was 5-2, before running into Besiktas, Fenerbahce and Anadolu Efes, the three teams that showed the most in Turkey. Therefore, we expect that Petkim will not lose by a margin higher than the offered handicap.
