Türk Metal Kırıkkale form and stats

With 1 3. Lig: Group 2 win, 1 draw and 5 defeats from their home games, Türk Metal Kırıkkale are certainly not brimming with confidence.

Ahead of that match, Kırıkkale won a home game hosting Turgutluspor (3-1).

It should be noted that a peek at the 12 latest league games reveals that 9 of them qualified as a both teams not to score result (only one or none of the teams scored).

The Türk Metal Kırıkkale fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 8 in 7 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Kırıkkale defense is not exactly impregnable. 13 goals conceded from 7 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
