Ankaragücü form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Ankaragücü so far with only 10 points returning home. The records show 2-4-6 (win-draw-lose).

Ankaragücü are looking to quickly end their 195 minutes long goal drought in the Super Lig.

The manager M. Akçay was unhappy after their last game, a Super Lig match played at their home ground Ankara Ondokuz May?s Stadyumu. Ankaragücü suffered a 0-3 loss to Sivasspor (placed 4th). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Genclerbirligi wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

It's a bit worrying for Ankaragücü that their goalkeeper Ricardo Friedrich made six saves in the Sivasspor game last time out, but still couldn''t prevent the loss.

We have done a similar check as we did with the hometeam, looking up recent matches where Ankaragücü played away with similar odds. This revealed seven games. The visitors overcame the odds to win one time, zero were draws and the home team won as expected six times.

The visitors have scored 10 goals from 12 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. In the opposite end, Ankaragücü have conceded 20 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head

The most recent history between these sides is the Ankaragücü - Beşiktaş 0-0 played earlier this season. Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Beşiktaş won six games, three matches ended with a draw and Ankaragücü has one win. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: five / five
