Enjoying a 3 point lead in the league table, Sivasspor fans aim to see their adored players collect all points from this match hosting Kasımpaşa.

Insights:
  • Sivasspor have the most conceded goals in the first half (29) in Super Lig
  • Kasımpaşa have the most dropped points from leading position (23) in Super Lig

Kasımpaşa have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 800 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Sivasspor form and stats

The story so far in the Super Lig for Sivasspor at their home stadium (Yeni Sivas 4 Eylül Stadyumu) is 4 wins, 6 draws and 5 defeats.

The fans are hoping that Sivasspor will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 1-4 away loss in the match against Umraniyespor (placed 17th). Midfield player Charisis got a match rating of 7.33 in that game, the max score being 10. Charisis dribled past the opponent 5 of 5 times.

A 0-0 scoreline against Fenerbahce before that one, played at their own home stadium in the Turkish Cup. 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 4 times, drawn 9 and lost 1.

Goals, goals, goals? We don't know what will happen in this one, but we do know that 14 of the 18 latest league games with this team has contained at least three goals.

The Sivasspor fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 20 in 15 matches. 18 goals have been conceded.
