Ankaragücü form and stats

Ankaragücü's struggle is real here at Eryaman Stadyumu with only 8 points collected from 8 Super Lig games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-2-4.

The supporters are hoping that Ankaragücü will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 1-2 away loss in the game against Galatasaray (placed 1st). Kılınç (midfield) was the top team player in that game with a rating of 7.43/10. Kılınç served one assist, hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 2 of 3 times.

Preceding that match was a defeat to Umraniyespor (1-2).

This is expected to be a close game, with Ankaragücü perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Ankaragücü as a small favourite), we find 4 games. Ankaragücü has won 3 of these, drawn 1 and lost 0.

Take note: 12 of the most recent 14 league games from this football club have seen goals scored by both teams.

Ankaragücü are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 11 goals in 8 games. It's worth mentioning that 6 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 13 goals have been conceded.

Kayserispor form and stats

3-1-4 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Kayserispor in their Super Lig matches away.

Home advantage was not enough for Kayserispor in their previous game as they lost hosting Fatih Karagümrük, 2-4. As you can tell from the result, the match against Fatih Karagümrük was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today? Defender Hosseini was the best team player with a rating of 7.14. Hosseini won 5 of 5 duels.

Preceding that game, the 1-3 loss visiting Alanyaspor's place.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Kayserispor playing away and similar expectations, we found 8 relevant matches. Results were 2 Kayserispor wins, 4 draws and 2 defeats.

Take note that 9 of this club's 10 most recent league fixtures have ended with three goals or more.

Kayserispor have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 8 league away games 10 goals have been scored. 11 goals have been conceded by Kayserispor in these games.

Head 2 Head

Kayserispor have avoided defeat in the last 5 fixtures (1-4-0) facing Ankaragücü.
