Antalyaspor form and stats

Antalyaspor have played 19 Super Lig games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 6-6-7 (wins-draws-losses). It's been an uphill battle for Antalyaspor in their home games for quite some time now, as four matches in a row are lost here. Not since the BB Erzurumspor game have they avoided the disappointment of defeat.

The fans are hoping that Antalyaspor will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-2 away loss in the Super Lig game against Trabzonspor (placed 4th). Preceding that match was a defeat to Göztepe (2-3).

Antalyaspor's goalkeeper Ruud Boffin was extremely busy against Trabzonspor, saving the team from a uglier defeat with a stunning six saves.

This is expected to be a close game, with Antalyaspor perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Antalyaspor as a small favourite), we find seven games. Antalyaspor has won two of these, drawn two and lost three.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Turkish Cup game versus Beşiktaş in only three days. This game is also played here at Antalya Stadyumu.

Antalyaspor has scored 24 league goals at home this season, in 19 matches. 28 goals have been conceded.
