- Yeni Malatyaspor have the fewest scored goals (17) in Super Lig
- Beşiktaş have the fewest matches under the total-line (4) in Super Lig

The visiting Beşiktaş played their last game only four days ago, a Super Lig match. That game was also an away game, at Fatih Karagumruk. 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.

Malatyaspor's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 1-2 versus Göztepe (placed 15th). Eskihellaç (midfield was the top team player in that game with a rating of 7.13/10. Eskihellaç scored one goal, hit two key passes and had 36 successful passes (of 44 total).
A defeat was the result before that one, 0-1 away at Trabzonspor.Yeni Malatyaspor are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 14 goals in 11 games. Yeni Malatyaspor are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (26 from 11 played).
