Fixture Analysis
It is a Süper Lig clash, Regular Season - 13 as Göztepe welcome Kocaelispor to Gürsel Aksel Stadyumu. Kick-off is set for Sunday 23 November 2025 at 11:30 UTC.
Recent Form
Across all Süper Lig games this season, Göztepe have gone 5W 3D 2L from 10 outings — a 1.80 PPG return. Last five: W L L W W. They are averaging 1.20 goals per game and conceding 0.60 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. Defensively, conceding just 0.60 per game is an exceptional defensive record — one of the tightest in the division. 6 clean sheets from 10 games (60%) is a standout defensive return — they are keeping their net clean in more than half their matches. Both teams have scored in just 30% of their matches, indicating a tendency toward clean sheets or low-scoring outcomes. This season is still relatively young for Göztepe, so this record blends games from this season and last.
Göztepe's home record at Gürsel Aksel Stadyumu: 4W 5D 1L from 10 Süper Lig appearances (1.70 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.30 goals scored and 0.70 conceded per game. 4 home clean sheets from 10 games (40%) — a solid defensive base on their own ground.
Looking at all fixtures this season, Kocaelispor stand at 4W 2D 4L from 10 Süper Lig matches — 1.40 PPG. Last five: W W W L W. Their scoring rate of 1.10 per game is modest, conceding 1.30 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. This season is still relatively young for Kocaelispor, so this record blends games from this season and last.
On the road, Kocaelispor have gone 1W 0D 5L from 6 away fixtures this term (0.50 PPG). Away from home they average 0.83 goals scored and 2.00 conceded per game. Their away PPG of 0.50 is notably below their overall 1.40 — form away from home has been a clear weakness this season.
The form figures are too closely matched to derive a directional pick: Göztepe 1.80 PPG, Kocaelispor 1.40 PPG. Look to other data sets to build the analysis.
In-Play Data
Göztepe trading profile (12 games, 5 at home): they score before half-time in 60% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 71% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 57% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 20% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 20% of games (home games); they keep a clean sheet 67% of the time.
Kocaelispor trading profile (12 games, 5 at away): they score before half-time in 60% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; BTTS occurs in 60% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 60% of games (away games); they fail to score in 33% of games.
The in-play data supports BTTS No — both teams show low combined scoring rates (Göztepe 25% | Kocaelispor 42%). Under 2.5 goals has backing from the in-play data — both teams register low Over 2.5 rates (Göztepe 25% | Kocaelispor 25%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Göztepe 1.66 xG and Kocaelispor 0.64 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Göztepe attack 1.018 / defence 0.646 | Kocaelispor attack 0.764 / defence 1.257. League average goals — home 1.298 / away 1.304. Kocaelispor bring a strong defensive rating of 1.257 — this is suppressing Göztepe's projected output below what their attack strength alone would suggest. Göztepe's defence rating of 0.646 is below average — the home backline is amplifying the visitor's projected output. Data: 48 Göztepe games / 12 Kocaelispor games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Göztepe 60% | Draw 27% | Kocaelispor 12%. Fair-value odds: Göztepe 1.67 | Draw 3.70 | Kocaelispor 8.33. The model has a clear lean to Göztepe (60%) — a 48pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 41% | BTTS probability 40% | Total xG 2.31. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 59% — total xG of 2.31 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 40% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Summary & Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is Göztepe at 60% — clear model lean. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 27% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.
On the goals line, Poisson's 2.31 combined xG gives a 41% probability to Under 2.5 — Poisson-only — limited corroboration.
Poisson assigns a 40% probability to BTTS No based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates are neutral: Göztepe 50% | Kocaelispor 50%.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Göztepe and Kocaelispor finished level at 0-0 at Gürsel Aksel Stadyumu, Regular Season - 13, in the Süper Lig. The remainder of the report sets that outcome against the pre-match model, the markets and the teams' data profiles.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Göztepe 1.66 xG and Kocaelispor 0.64 xG, a combined 2.31. The scoreboard read 0-0 for 0 actual goals. Göztepe fell 1.7 short of their projected output. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Göztepe attack 1.02 / defence 0.65 against Kocaelispor attack 0.76 / defence 1.26, drawn from 48/12 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Göztepe 60% | Draw 27% | Kocaelispor 12%, with Göztepe to win its most likely call at 60%. The actual draw had been the model's second-ranked read at 27%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 41%. The game delivered 0, so it stayed under — in line with the projection. Over 1.5 had been 69% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 40% and the match did not — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 25% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Göztepe 25%, Kocaelispor 25%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 33%, which matched the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Göztepe's trading profile (12 games, 5 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 25% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 67% of the time, and duly kept one; they fail to score in 25% of games, a blank that repeated today.
Kocaelispor's trading profile (12 games, 5 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 42% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 33% of games, a blank that repeated today.
Form vs Result
On form, Göztepe arrived the stronger side — 1.83 PPG against 1.17. The form guide was only half-right: the stronger side did not lose, but could not convert the edge into a win. Göztepe (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.20 scoring average — below par going forward. Kocaelispor (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.00 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 2.20 average — tighter than their form line.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 2 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (hit), form (miss). Partial vindication: some calls landed, others slipped.
