Trabzonspor form and stats

Overall Super Lig stats at home this season for Trabzonspor are 2-1-3 (wins-draw-losses).

Trabzonspor drew their last game, also a home match. Adana Demirspor (after extra-time, 3-4 on penalties) was the opponent, 2-2 the score. A 0-0 draw away in the Super Lig before that, with Kayserispor the opponent.

A painful moment in the game against Adana Demirspor (after extra-time, 3-4 on penalties) was the missed penalty kick from L. Baker in the 90th minute. A goal there would obviously have changed the match and probably the outcome.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Trabzonspor's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played four games, won one match, drawn one and lost two.
