Konyaspor will hope to extend their unbeaten run to three matches when they host Sivasspor at Torku Arena in the Turkish Super Lig on Saturday.
Meanwhile, the visitors will be aiming to win two consecutive matches in the Super Lig for the first time in this campaign.
Match preview
Konyaspor successfully ended a three-match winless streak last time out, after securing a 1-0 victory away at Samsunspor last Saturday as Pedrinho's 30-minute goal proved to be the decisive strike.
Following a 3-2 away win over Kasimpasa on the opening day, the Anatolian Eagles suffered defeats in their next two matches and drew their most recent game before last weekend's victory, which has left them in seventh place with seven points from five matches.
In addition to the win, Ali Camdali will be particularly pleased with his team's solid defence, having kept clean sheets in their last two league matches.
The Konya-based side will face Sivasspor in their next game, aiming to end a six-game winless run on home soil against the visitors.
The Anatolian Eagles have yet to secure a victory in their last three home matches in the Super Lig, including the home games they have played in this campaign, already suffering a loss to Galatasaray before drawing with Kayserispor.
Meanwhile, Sivasspor ended a two-match losing streak with a 3-2 victory over Gaziantep at the New Sivas 4 Eylul Stadium last Saturday.
The Braves fell behind early when Alexandru Maxim converted a penalty for Gaz in the sixth minute, but they equalised before half time through Rey Manaj in the 37th minute.
Bulent Uygun's side restored the lead in the 69th minute through Keita Balde, who was subsequently sent off a minute later, but they managed to score a third goal through Murat Paluli.
Although Kenan Kodro pulled one back for Gaziantep in the 88th minute, Sivasspor held on for the win, which leaves them with seven points and in eighth place, level on points and goal difference with Saturday's opponents but behind on goals scored.
A first consecutive win of the season would see the Yigidos overtake the Anatolian Eagles, and their record of three wins in their last five away games in the league suggests they are capable of achieving this.

We say: Konyaspor 1-1 Sivasspor
