Super Lig: What this game might lack in style it should make up for in pace and commitment. Let's go: Fatih Karagümrük - Altay!

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

Little time to rest for the host team, as they played a Turkish Cup game only four days earlier. That game was an away game at Sivasspor, so at least Fatih Karagümrük are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Fatih Karagümrük form and stats

6 victories, 4 draws and 3 defeats. That’s what Fatih Karagümrük have to build on here at Atatürk Olimpiyat Stadı in the Super Lig. The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at Atatürk Olimpiyat Stadı.

A strong away win before that one, visiting Istanbul Basaksehir and winning 2-1.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Karagümrük have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found seven games) they have won five times, drawn two and lost zero.

Fatih Karagümrük are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 18 goals in 13 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches.

Altay form and stats

Altay have only collected 11 points from their away games in the Super Lig, after 3-2-9 (14 played).

Altay are travelling after their nice 3-2 home win in the fixture against Gazisehir Gaziantep (placed 11th). Rodríguez got a match rating of 8.1 in that game, top player of the team. Rodríguez served one assist, hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 6 of 6 times.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Besiktas wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

Altay are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is one win, one draw and four defeats. From a total of six matches.

Altay are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 15 away goals from 14 games (in the league). Altay's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 23 goals from these trips.

Head-to-head statistics (for the prior six meetings): Fatih Karagümrük won two games, two matches ended in a draw and Altay got two wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: two / four
