Gaziantep F.K. form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Gaziantep F.K. so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 1-3-12 (win-draw-lose). A depressing four defeats in a row for Gaziantep F.K. in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Antalyaspor.

Gaziantep delivered a 0-0 draw playing at home against Trabzonspor (placed 1st) in their previous fixture. Güvenç was the team player of the game with the player rating of 8.35. The agile goalkeeper Güvenç topped it up with a clean sheet.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Kasımpaşa wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day.

The visitors have scored 10 goals from 16 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Gaziantep F.K.'s defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 29 goals from these trips.
