Hatayspor vs Goztepe Match Analysis & Prediction
15/12/2024 1:30 pm
Hatayspor will host Goztepe SK in the Turkish Super Lig on Sunday, with the hosts hoping to end a three-game winless run and take a big step towards leaving the relegation zone.
Meanwhile, the visitors will be looking to win two matches in a row after bouncing back from defeat with a 3-1 victory over Adana Demirspor last time out.
Hatayspor struggled to stay in the top flight last season and have found themselves in a similar predicament this year, currently second from bottom with eight points from 14 matches.
The Star of the South failed to win any of their opening 10 matches, and their only victory came against Gaziantep in their 11th attempt, though they have since failed to record another win.
Riza Calimbay’s side had a decent mini-run between late October and early December when they won three matches, but two of those victories were in the Turkish Cup, with the other league games in that streak producing one defeat and two draws.
Meanwhile, Goztepe are enjoying their return to the top flight, with 24 points from 14 matches currently putting them in sixth position, two points behind fourth-placed Eyupspor who have played an extra game.
Stanimir’s side successfully bounced back from their defeat to Basaksehir with the victory over the league’s whipping boys last time out, despite playing over 14 minutes of the game with a man deficit following Ogun Bayrak’s 76th-minute sending off.
The biggest issue for Goztepe in this campaign is the disparity between their home and away form – while they are unbeaten at home with six wins from seven matches, the visitors have won just once on the road, while four of six away games.
Hatayspor vs. Goztepe Head to head
In the previous 14 meetings between these two teams, Hatayspor have claimed four victories while Goztepe have won eight, and they have drawn in two.
