This match features two teams living in the basement of the 1. Lig, Eskişehirspor holding 18th place and İstanbulspor lying 13th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Eskişehirspor and İstanbulspor.

Eskişehirspor have had a bad season and will be relegated from 1. Lig. İstanbulspor is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.

Lig, have only managed 4 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses from their games here at Yeni Eskişehir Stadyumu.

Eskişehirspor faced defeat in their previous match, away at Ümraniyespor (0-3). Preceding that game was the home draw versus Altay that ended 2-2.

Eskişehirspor are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 20 goals in 15 games.

İstanbulspor form and stats

There's been little loot from İstanbulspor's travels as they have only collected 13 points from 15 away games in the 1. Lig. İstanbulspor only have 2 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 7 draws. Recent form does not give İstanbulspor much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. Eskişehirspor will be a tough nut to crack. İstanbulspor has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

İstanbulspor aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 244 league minutes without a goal. A. Cajic was the last player to find the net.

Home advantage was not enough for İstanbulspor in their previous game, as they lost their 1. Lig-match, hosting Akhisar Belediyespor, 0-1. Prior to that match, the İstanbulspor manager O. Çıkırıkçı faced defeat when travelling to Fatih Karagümrük and losing 0-1.

İstanbulspor have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 15 league away games 21 goals have been scored. 21 goals have been conceded by İstanbulspor in these games.

Head 2 Head

These teams' last encounter with each other was the İstanbulspor - Eskişehirspor 1-0 earlier this season. Head-2-head stats last nine meetings: three - two - four (Eskişehirspor wins - draws - İstanbulspor wins). As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), five had two or less.
