Sivasspor form and stats

Sivasspor are yet to win a home game, having collected 1 point from their first two Super Lig games here at Yeni Sivas 4 Eylül Stadyumu.

Sivasspor drew their last game, 1-1 away at Fenerbahce (placed 3rd). Ahmet Oğuz was "man of the match" with a rating of 7.05 out of 10. The defender Oğuz hit one key pass and won 8 of 12 duels.

Preceding that game was the home draw versus Goztepe that ended 2-2.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Sivasspor have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 14 games) they have won five times, drawn four and lost five.

There will be little rest for Sivasspor after this match as they are travelling to Yeni Malatyaspor for a Super Lig game in only three days.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Sivasspor at home in the league. 2 on target and 3 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.
