Göztepe form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Super Lig this season. Göztepe have only managed 1 win, 1 draw and 5 losses from their games here at Göztepe Gürsel Aksel Stadı.
Göztepe's previous game was a Turkish Cup match also played at home, ending 5-0 versus Kahta 02 Spor. The home side are looking to build on that result. As mentioned above, Göztepe "killed" Kahta 02 Spor in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
Before that, Göztepe drew at home versus Fenerbahce.This is expected to be a close game, with Göztepe perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Göztepe as a small favourite), we find 16 games. Göztepe has won five of these, drawn three and lost eight.
Göztepe have scored 3 goals here in 7 league matches, a depressing statistic. Göztepe's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 9 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Gaziantep go into this game after a win, the home game against Sakaryaspor that ended 3-1.
That result followed a home victory 3-2 versus Konyaspor in the Super Lig.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest.
