Venue: Eryaman Stadyumu (22000 seats)

Ankaragücü hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 38 points and a 15th position in the Super Lig table. Visiting Gazişehir Gaziantep holds 8th place with 51 pts.

Insights:
  • Ankaragücü have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Gazişehir Gaziantep have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

It's no vacation for neither Ankaragücü nor Gazişehir Gaziantep as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Relegation threatens Ankaragücü who should definitely be looking for some points here. Gazişehir Gaziantep are still fighting for the big positions at the top of the table.

Ankaragücü form and stats

8 victories, 3 draws and 6 defeats. That’s what Ankaragücü have to build on here at Eryaman Stadyumu in the Super Lig.

Preceding that game was the home draw versus Denizlispor that ended 1-1.

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 eight games. Ankaragücü has won three of these, drawn four and lost one.

The manager H. Karaman will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to İstanbul Başakşehir in only four days.

Ankaragücü are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 25 goals in 17 games. 21 goals have been conceded. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.

Gazişehir Gaziantep form and stats

Gazişehir Gaziantep have only collected 15 points from their away games in the Super Lig, after 3-6-8 (17 played). Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in ten away games in a row.

Gazişehir Gaziantep might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. BB Erzurumspor proved too strong as Gazişehir slumped to a 2-3 defeat in front of their own fans at Gaziantep Stadyumu. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Alanyaspor wasn't a success with a 2-3 loss.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Gazişehir Gaziantep playing away and similar expectations, we found eight relevant matches. Results were three Gazişehir wins, three draws and two defeats.

After this away game Gazişehir return home for a Super Lig game against Sivasspor. That game is only four sleeps after this.

The visiting Gazişehir Gaziantep have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 20 goals from 17 games. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Gazişehir Gaziantep have conceded 27 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
