Konyaspor is currently in impressive form and approaches their away fixture against Rizespor on May 01, 2026, with significant confidence. Following a crucial cup victory over Fenerbahce and a 2-1 league win against Trabzonspor, Konyaspor has once again proven to be a dangerous side. While they may not have a major target left in the league, a top-half finish is deemed sufficient, and the team's morale is exceptionally high.

Rizespor, on the other hand, has no real objective left in the league after a 2-0 away loss to Kayserispor and a 2-2 draw with Fenerbahce. However, Rizespor continues to play with freedom at home, having recently secured four consecutive league victories there. For a significant part of the season, they have performed better than their results suggested and still possess ample quality in attack.

Konyaspor's current upward trajectory could well continue in their visit to Rizespor. The only question mark remains whether Konyaspor will opt for squad rotation, given their upcoming cup semi-final against Besiktas on Tuesday. This decision could significantly influence the dynamics of the match.

Rizespor's games are often more entertaining than their league position implies, and Konyaspor, in their current form, is poised to contribute significantly to an exciting encounter. Both teams have shown high attacking performance and Expected Goals (xG) recently. Rizespor's average xG in their last 3 home matches stands at 1.88, while Konyaspor's average xG in their last 3 away matches is 2.03. These statistics strongly suggest a high-scoring affair.

Konyaspor's form chart is particularly impressive, having won 5 of their last 6 Super Lig matches. Furthermore, 5 of the last 6 head-to-head matches between Rizespor and Konyaspor have seen both teams score. These statistics provide strong support for the 'Over 2.5 Goals' and 'Both Teams to Score' betting options. An outcome with over 2.5 goals appears highly probable for this match.
