Ankaragücü form and stats

Ankaragücü have played 14 Super Lig games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 6-2-6 (wins-draws-losses). Nine out of nine points from the last three home games for Ankaragücü, and the home supporters are ready to scream their lungs out to keep the winning streak alive.

Ankaragücü's previous game was also played at home, ending 3-1 versus Giresunspor (placed 16th). The home side are looking to build on that result. Sowe has scored in four games in a row. Skilful! The striker Sowe won the honour of being "man of the match" for Ankaragücü with a rating of 8.64/10. Sowe scored two goals and dribled past the opponent 3 of 5 times.

Heartbreak before that as Ankaragücü lost 1-2 at Fenerbahce's place.

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 4 games. Ankaragücü has won 3 of these, drawn 1 and lost 0.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Ankaragücü as they are travelling to their away game against Istanbul Basaksehir in the Turkish Cup. That match is four days after this one.

Ankaragücü have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Eryaman Stadyumu with 21 goals in 14 league matches. Ankaragücü have conceded 21 from these games.

Kasımpaşa form and stats

There's been little loot from Kasımpaşa's travels as they have only collected 12 points from 14 away games in the Super Lig. Kasımpaşa only have 3 wins to counter their 8 defeats and 3 draws.

Kasımpaşa might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Konyaspor proved too strong as Kasımpaşa slumped to a 1-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Stadyumu. Midfielder Eysseric was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 8.33. Eysseric hit four key passes, dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times and had 60 successful passes (of 73 total).

A 0-0 draw at Kayserispor's stadium before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Kasımpaşa playing away and similar expectations, we found 9 relevant matches. Results were 3 Kasımpaşa wins, 3 draws and 3 defeats.

The visitors have scored 11 goals from 14 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. In the opposite end, Kasımpaşa have conceded 23 goals in their away games.
