Fatih Karagümrük form and stats

The story so far in the Super Lig for Fatih Karagümrük at their home stadium (Atatürk Olimpiyat Stadı) is 10 wins, 4 draws and 4 defeats. Two draws in a row at home now for Karagümrük.

The fans are hoping that Fatih Karagümrük will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-5 away loss in the Super Lig game against Konyaspor (placed 11th). Preceding that game was the home draw versus Antalyaspor that ended 2-2.

As you see from the result above, Karagümrük suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.

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 five games) they have won three times, drawn two and lost zero.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Fatih Karagümrük as they are travelling to their away game against Beşiktaş in the Super Lig. That match is three days after this one.

Karagümrük have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Atatürk Olimpiyat Stadı with 32 goals in 18 league matches. 18 goals have been conceded.

Gençlerbirliği form and stats

There's been little loot from Gençlerbirliği's travels as they have only collected 15 points from 18 away games in the Super Lig. Gençlerbirliği, who have the fewest clean sheets (4) in Super Lig, only have 4 wins to counter their 11 defeats and 3 draws.

The manager ?. Bizati was unhappy after their last game, a Super Lig match played at their home ground Eryaman Stadyumu. Gençlerbirliği suffered a 0-2 loss to Galatasaray (placed 2nd). Prior to that match, the Gençlerbirliği manager ?. Bizati faced defeat when travelling to Hatayspor and losing 1-3.

It's a bit worrying for Gençlerbirliği that their goalkeeper Kristoffer Nordfeldt made eight saves in the Galatasaray game last time out, but still couldn't prevent the loss.

We have checked recent matches where Gençlerbirliği have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those eight games were zero victories, three draws and five defeats.

A new game in only three days for Gençlerbirliği, the Super Lig home match versus Goztepe. Busy days.

The attacking power of Gençlerbirliği when travelling is not overwhelming with 15 goals scored from 18 league matches away. In the opposite end, Gençlerbirliği have conceded 34 goals in their away games.
