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 11th and Yeni Malatyaspor in 9th place.
- Göztepe have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- Yeni Malatyaspor has the most points from losing position (11) in Super Lig
Göztepe have less rest than Yeni Malatyaspor in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Super Lig game only four days ago. That game was an away game at Denizlispor, so at least Göztepe are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
This stadium uses artifical turf, unlike Yeni Malatyaspor's home stadium. The visitors last three games on artifical turf have ended in 0 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss.
Yeni Malatyaspor have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1400 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
Göztepe form and stats
When playing at home in the Super Lig, Göztepe have managed 4 wins, 3 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 10 games.
In their previous game, the manager Ü. Karaman led his Göztepe to a defeat in the Super Lig match away at Denizlispor. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Tire Tayfur Çiçek Stadı. Heartbreak before that as Göztepe lost 1-2 at Besiktas's place.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Göztepe have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites).

Göztepe are traveling soon after this match as the Super Lig match at Gazisehir Gaziantep awaits in four days.
