BB Erzurumspor are aching to get the points at home in the upcoming game vs Altay.

Insights:
  • BB Erzurumspor have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Altay have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

It's quite the trip for Altay when visiting Erzurumspor as the cities are 1500 kilometers apart.

The hosts BB Erzurumspor saw competitive action as recent as four days ago, playing in the 1. Lig. That game was an away game at Bodrumspor, so at least BB Erzurumspor are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

BB Erzurumspor form and stats

The story so far in the 1. Lig for BB Erzurumspor at their home stadium (Kazım Karabekir Stadyumu) is 4 wins, 2 draws and 6 defeats. When BB Erzurumspor hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Adanaspor, Altnordu, Yeni Malatyaspor, Denizlispor, BB Erzurumspor and Genclerbirligi), they have won 3 of 3 matches! Game days at Kazım Karabekir Stadyumu have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Erzurumspor as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.

Defensively the home team are doing well, with their goalkeeper Mehmet Göktüğ Bakırbaş not having conceded a league goal in 183 minutes.

BB Erzurumspor shared the glory with Bodrumspor in their last match, an away game that ended all square 0-0.

Before that match, a win away at Denizlispor.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Erzurumspor have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 10 games) they have won 6 times, drawn 2 and lost 2.

There will be little rest for BB Erzurumspor after this match as they are travelling to Eyüpspor for a 1. Lig game in only four days.

Erzurumspor are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 14 goals in 12 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. 14 goals have been conceded.

Altay form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Altay so far with only 13 points returning home. The records show 3-4-6 (win-draw-lose).

Altay might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Manisa BBSK proved too strong as Altay slumped to a 1-3 defeat in front of their own fans at İzmir Atatürk Stadyumu.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Rizespor wasn't a success with a 1-3 loss.

We have checked recent matches where Altay have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 6 games were 1 victory, 1 draw and 4 defeats.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Sakaryaspor in just four days.

As opposed to that, Altay have seen the ball go into their own net 18 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

These competitors have met previously this season: Altay - BB Erzurumspor 1-1. H2H stats regardless of arena (last six matches): BB Erzurumspor two wins, two draws and Altay two victories. As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), three games had two or less.
