Eyüpspor host Kocaelispor at the Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Stadyumu on Saturday 7 November, with kick-off at 10:30 UK. The Super Lig's bottom side host a team sitting 8th.
Eyüpspor are 18th of 18 with 3 points from 10 games, one win and nine defeats. Kocaelispor have 16 points from the same number of matches and the second-best defensive record in the division. We still leave room for a draw, at 30%.
Eyüpspor have scored 3 goals and conceded 28 in 10 games in the league table. Per game that is 0.3 scored, the fewest in the league, and 2.8 shipped, the most. They have not kept a clean sheet all season.
They lost 5-1 at Amed SK last weekend, went down 1-0 at home to Kasımpaşa the week before, and lost 2-0 at Erzurumspor. Before that came a 4-0 home defeat to Göztepe and an 8-0 loss at Fenerbahçe. Their only win of the season came in their third game, and they have lost each of the seven since.
Kocaelispor are 8th with five wins, one draw and four defeats, 11 goals scored and 9 conceded. They have kept a clean sheet in 40% of their games, the 3rd highest rate in the league, and they concede 0.9 a game, the 2nd fewest.
They drew 0-0 at home to Rizespor on 31 October, after winning 2-1 at Alanyaspor. Before that they lost 2-1 at home to Göztepe and 2-1 away at Beşiktaş, with a 2-0 home win over Gaziantep the game before that.
At the other end they are less convincing. Kocaelispor score 1.1 a game, the 8th fewest in the league, and only 40% of their matches have gone over 2.5 goals, the 2nd lowest rate in the division. Eyüpspor are the more open of the two on that measure at 50%, but that comes from conceding, not scoring.
