Insights:
  • Giresunspor have the fewest scored goals in the first half (5) in Super Lig
  • Fatih Karagümrük have scored more than double the goals of Giresunspor.

Giresunspor form and stats

With 3 Super Lig wins, 1 draw and 6 defeats from their home games, Giresunspor are certainly not brimming with confidence. Three consecutive losses here at Çotanak Stadyumu is hard to swallow for the home team. Both players, staff and the home crowd are desperate to get something from this match.

Giresunspor travelled for their previous game, a trip to Konyaspor that ended 0-0. The goalie Kaplan was named most valuable player of the team in that game, scoring 7.81 out of ten. Kaplan topped it up with a clean sheet.

Preceding that match was the home game against Kayserispor that was lost 1-2.

This is expected to be a close game, with Giresunspor perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Giresunspor as a small favourite), we find 12 games. Giresunspor has won 7 of these, drawn 3 and lost 2.

Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 16 goals have been conceded.
