An important duel in the bottom section of the Super Lig, with both Denizlispor and Gençlerbirliği experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 21st and the visitors in 19th place.
- Gençlerbirliği has the most conceded goals (44) in Super Lig
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Denizlispor form and stats
Denizlispor's struggle is real here at Denizli Atatürk Stadyumu with only 9 points collected from 12 Super Lig games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-3-7.
Denizlispor are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-2 away versus Konyaspor. Preceding that game was the home draw versus Antalyaspor that ended 1-1.
The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Denizlispor handle that role? We have found six games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are three wins, two draws and one defeat.
The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Denizlispor here at Denizli Atatürk Stadyumu in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (8 from 12 games). It's worth mentioning that 4 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Denizlispor have conceded 15 in these home matches.
Gençlerbirliği form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Gençlerbirliği, who have the most conceded goals (44) in Super Lig, so far with only 8 points returning home. The records show 2-2-7 (win-draw-lose).
The attacking players of Gençlerbirliği have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 274 minutes.
Gençlerbirliği might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Besiktas proved too strong as Gençlerbirliği slumped to a 0-3 defeat in front of their own fans at Eryaman Stadyumu. Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Konyaspor that ended 0-0.
It's a bit worrying for Gençlerbirliği that their goalkeeper Kristoffer Nordfeldt made six saves in the Besiktas game last time out, but still couldn't prevent the loss.
Gençlerbirliği are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is zero wins, two draws and three defeats. From a total of five matches.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Gençlerbirliği as they have only managed to score 6 times from 11 away games in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. The Gençlerbirliği manager M. Altıparmak has some worries about the defense as 22 goals have been conceded in these travels.
