Antalyaspor will be looking to clinch a fifth consecutive victory when they play host to Hatayspor on Monday.
The visitors, who sit in seventh place, are also in fine form after avoiding defeat in each of their last five matches to keep their hunt for European qualification on track.
Match preview
After losing to Caykur Rizespor on January 20, Antalyaspor occupied a relegation spot, and it seemed as though Nuri Sahin's side would become embroiled in an almighty relegation battle.
However, since that defeat, Antalyaspor have collected more points than any other side in the Super Lig, and they enter Monday's contest in the midst of a nine-match unbeaten run, leaving them in 10th position in the league table.
Monday's hosts have been in particularly imperious form in recent weeks, with four consecutive wins to show for their impressive performances.
The most recent of those victories occurred last weekend, as Sahin's team edged out Altay via a 2-1 scoreline thanks to goals from Luiz Adriano and Haji Wright.
Impressively, Antalyaspor have conceded just three goals in their last nine league games, and they will be aiming to put on another resolute display against Hatayspor.
The visitors, meanwhile, occupy seventh position, and they still harbour hopes of qualifying for European competition.
Ahead the weekend's round of fixtures, Hatayspor sit four points adrift of the top four, although that gap could have been smaller were it not for a series of recent draws.
Hatayspor have had to settle for a point in three of their last four matches, although those contests have helped them embark on a five-match unbeaten run.
After taking a point off Besiktas, Monday's visitors played out a goalless draw against Adana Demirspor in their last outing, but Omer Erdogan will be aware that his side need victories if they are to close the gap to the top four.
However, hopes of collecting three points on Monday may be slim as Hatayspor are winless in their previous six away games.
