Sancaktepe Belediye form and stats

With {1 2. Lig: Beyaz wins}, 4 draws and 8 defeats from their home games, Sancaktepe Belediye, who have the fewest points (7) at home in 2. Lig: Beyaz, are certainly not brimming with confidence. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a league-game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in 16 attempts. With ten home 2. Lig: Beyaz games in a row without a win, the Sancaktepe fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Zonguldak Kömürspor game long ago, can be stopped today.

Sancaktepe Belediye are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 810 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by O. Tırpancı).

As you see from the result above, Sancaktepe suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.

Sancaktepe have scored 5 goals here in 13 league matches, a depressing statistic. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 23 goals have been conceded.
