İstanbulspor form and stats

İstanbulspor have performed here at Ziya Altınoğlu Stadyumu this season with 6 wins from 9 1. Lig matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 1 game and lost 2. Hopes of three in a row are alive for İstanbulspor after consecutive victories at their own ground.

İstanbulspor are returning here after visiting Manisa BBSK in a 1. Lig game and winning with a 2-1 scoreline. Yılmaz and Čajič scored the goal(s). Manager Dalgıç felt very clever after Čajič scored the winning goal against Manisa BBSK, having brought on that player as a substitute in the 78th minute.

A 0-0 draw away before that, with Bandrmaspor the opponent.

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

A decent goal production from İstanbulspor in their home games so far, with 16 goals from 9 league matches. İstanbulspor have conceded 10 in these home matches.

Ümraniyespor form and stats

Ümraniyespor have an excellent away record in the 1. Lig so far with 6-2-2 from 10 games. Impressively, the visitors are on a five-match winning run which they hope continue versus İstanbulspor.

The supporters enjoyed Ümraniyespor's previous game versus Kocaelispor (placed 12th), a 1. Lig 1-0 win played at home. Napoleoni came off the bench to score the winning goal in the match against Kocaelispor last time out, making the manager Uçar feel like a tactical genius. The end of the last match, against Kocaelispor, was very satisfying as Napoleoni scored the winning goal deep into overtime.

A 0-2 defeat away at Konyaspor before that.
