Insights:
  • Bursaspor have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Somaspor have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

Bursaspor are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. Somaspor are still fighting for the big positions at the top of the table.
