With their 9 point lead in the league table, Hatayspor club members crave to see their gladiators get all points from this fixture hosting Göztepe.

Insights:
  • Hatayspor have the most conceded goals in the first half (23) in Super Lig
  • Göztepe have the fewest clean sheets (1) in Super Lig

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Göztepe have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 11-12-15 (win-draw-loss) from 38 matches.

Göztepe have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1000 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Göztepe could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Turkish Cup game only four sleeps ago. That game was also an away game, at Beşiktaş. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
