Preceding that match was a defeat to Sakaryaspor (0-1).

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Göztepe have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 17 matches with the results: Won 6, drawn 2 and lost 9.

It should be noted that a peek at the 16 most recent league matches shows that 14 of them qualified as a both teams to score: NO result (only one or none of the teams scored).

Göztepe are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 10 goals in 9 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. From these home matches, Göztepe have conceded only 6 goals.
