Göztepe form and stats

The visitors are W5-D3-L7 on the road this term. That's in the Super Lig. Bitter travels for Göztepe as they have lost four games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Konyaspor match.

There might be some fixture complaints from Göztepe as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the Super Lig match against Fenerbahçe (1-2). Preceding that match was the 3-3 draw at home vs Alanyaspor.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day.

The visiting Göztepe have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 16 goals from 15 games. 18 goals have been conceded by Göztepe in these games.
