But that result did not check the former's stride, as they earned another title in the Turkish top-flight - and now, they'll be out to pick up three points as they seek to mount a successful defence of their title this term.

Trabzonspor opened their Super Lig campaign last Friday, with victory over Istanbulspor courtesy of a 2-0 triumph. Andreas Cornelius got the scoring going in the 16th minute before Stefano Denswil put the finishing touches in the closing stages.
Having nabbed a first league grown since the 20th century, the desire to add more to their tally awaits - and the hosts will be firing on all cylinders for this encounter.

A delayed start to the season meats Hatayspor did not take part in league action last week, though they did play out a 2-2 friendly on Sunday to keep their engines ticking over.
A 12th-place finish last term was by no means a bad result, but they will hope they can crack a spot in the top half of the table this time around.
Predicted Hatayspor starting XI: Kardesler; Bas, Vranjes, Oksuz, Adekugbe, Boudjemaa, Ergun, Lobzhanidze, Aabid, Varga, El Kaabi.
