Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Göztepe in 8th and Beşiktaş in 7th place.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Göztepe and Beşiktaş.
Beşiktaş play their home games on grass, while this game is played on artificial turf. Recent stats for Beşiktaş when playing on artificial turf are 2 wins, 0 draws and 1 defeat from three matches. They have scored 5 goals and conceded 4 times in these games.
Göztepe form and stats
When playing at home in the Super Lig, Göztepe have managed 3 wins, 3 draws and suffered 2 defeats from 8 games.
A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Göztepe, who played 2-2 against Antalyaspor. That match was also played at this venue (Tire Tayfur Çiçek Stadı). A strong away win before that one, visiting Antalyaspor and winning 3-0.
The Göztepe fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 11 in 8 matches. 9 goals have been conceded.
Beşiktaş form and stats
3 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses. That’s the product of Beşiktaş playing as the away team in the Super Lig this season.
Beşiktaş failed to get anything from their last game, a Turkish Cup home match vs BB Erzurumspor that ended with defeat 2-3. The game before that, in the Super Lig, was lost at home, a 1-2 defeat against Sivasspor.
Beşiktaş have scored 10 goals on their travels this season, from 8 away games in the league. The Beşiktaş manager A. Avcı has some worries about the defense as 16 goals have been conceded in these travels.
Head 2 Head
This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Beşiktaş - Göztepe 3-0. H2H stats regardless of arena (last five matches): Göztepe 1 win, 0 draws and Beşiktaş 4 victories. As for goals, 3 matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), 2 games had two or less.Top Goalscorers
