Season ticket holders at Eryaman Stadyumu haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Ankaragücü languishing in the 17th position so far. The guesting Denizlispor will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Ankaragücü form and stats
With 1 Super Lig win, 2 draws and 4 defeats from their home games, Ankaragücü are certainly not brimming with confidence. All in all it has been a very rough period for Ankaragücü who hasn’t won a game in their last eleven attempts. Their previous win was against Genclerbirligi, 89 days ago.
The points were shared in Ankaragücü's previous game, also at home. Visiting Denizlispor (placed 11th) travelled back with a point after a 2-2 scoreline. 2-2 away at Antalyaspor before that.
There was plenty of action in the dying minutes of the game against Denizlispor as E. O. Scarione's goal in the 84th minute completed a cancellation of 0-2 and secured a point.
This is expected to be a close game, with Ankaragücü perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Ankaragücü as a small favourite), we find three games. Ankaragücü has won 1 of these, drawn 2 and lost 0.
The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Ankaragücü here at Eryaman Stadyumu in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (5 from 7 games). Ankaragücü have conceded 14 goals in these home games, a significant number.
Denizlispor form and stats
Playing away, Denizlispor have won 4 games, drawn 2 and suffered 2 defeats in the Super Lig this season.
It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Ankaragücü (placed 17th) in their previous outing. The Super Lig match ended in a draw 2-2. A loss against Alanyaspor was the result prior to that, in a home game.
It looked so good for Denizlispor vs Ankaragücü, but the job was not completed and two points were lost as a 2-0 lead was turned into a 2-2 draw.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found seven similar matches played by Denizlispor in our archives, and the results are: 2 wins for Denizlispor, 5 draws and 0 defeats.
Denizlispor find the net in their away games, although not all the time. 10 goals from 8 away fixtures in the league. As opposed to that, Denizlispor have seen the ball go into their own net 9 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
