Full Analysis

Medaş Konya Büyükşehir Stadyumu plays host to Konyaspor versus Gaziantep FK in Süper Lig, Regular Season - 29. Kick-off: Friday 28 March 2025 at 17:30 UTC.

Current Form

Konyaspor's overall Süper Lig record this term: 3W 2D 5L from 10 games (1.10 PPG). Last five: L D W L W. They are averaging 1.40 goals per game and conceding 1.50 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets. This season is still relatively young for Konyaspor, so this record blends games from this season and last.

At home at Medaş Konya Büyükşehir Stadyumu, Konyaspor have gone 5W 3D 2L this season (10 games, 1.80 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.70 goals scored and 1.30 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 70% of their home games — an outstanding BTTS rate that is a key data point for this fixture. Their home PPG of 1.80 is noticeably stronger than their overall 1.10 — Konyaspor are significantly better at Medaş Konya Büyükşehir Stadyumu than their overall form suggests.

Gaziantep FK have collected 1.70 PPG across 10 Süper Lig outings this season: 5W 2D 3L. Last five: W L W W W. Their scoring rate of 1.40 per game is modest, conceding 1.10 — 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. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market. This season is still relatively young for Gaziantep FK, so this record blends games from this season and last.

On the road, Gaziantep FK have gone 1W 2D 7L from 10 away fixtures this term (0.50 PPG). Away from home they average 1.40 goals scored and 2.50 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 90% of their away matches — a high BTTS rate on the road that directly informs this fixture. Their away PPG of 0.50 is notably below their overall 1.70 — form away from home has been a clear weakness this season.

Gaziantep FK arrive in superior form — a 0.60 PPG advantage (1.70 vs 1.10) that offsets much of the home-ground benefit. The away side are the form pick, with draw protection the sensible way to manage the home-field uncertainty.

The BTTS picture is exceptionally clear (using home/away splits) — Konyaspor register both teams scoring in 70% of relevant games, Gaziantep FK in 90%. Both sides above 70% makes BTTS Yes one of the strongest standalone angles in this fixture.

H2H Analysis

Neither side has dominated this fixture. The last 7 head-to-head meetings have produced 3 wins for Konyaspor, 3 for Gaziantep FK and 1 draws — an even split that leaves the H2H largely neutral as a betting input.

These two sides have produced goals at a consistent rate historically, averaging 3.1 per game across 7 meetings. That scoring profile provides genuine support for the Over 2.5 angle. The most recent clash, on 27 Oct 2024, ended 1–3 with Gaziantep FK winning.

With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H-derived signal is in the goals market. At 3.1 goals per game historically, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle to extract from the head-to-head data.

Trading

Konyaspor half-time and goal-timing data (64 games, 31 at home): they score before half-time in 64% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 77% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 59% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 52% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 42% of games (home games).

Gaziantep FK half-time and goal-timing data (64 games, 31 at away): they score before half-time in 81% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 83% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 61% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 64% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 74% of games (away games).

BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Konyaspor 55% versus Gaziantep FK 53%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Konyaspor 42% | Gaziantep FK 55%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Konyaspor 1.83 xG and Gaziantep FK 1.27 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: Konyaspor attack 0.963 / defence 0.957 | Gaziantep FK attack 1.121 / defence 1.156. League average goals — home 1.644 / away 1.184. Data: 65 Konyaspor games / 64 Gaziantep FK games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Konyaspor 50% | Draw 24% | Gaziantep FK 26%. Fair-value odds: Konyaspor 2.00 | Draw 4.17 | Gaziantep FK 3.85. Konyaspor hold a narrow Poisson edge at 50% — the draw (24%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 60% | BTTS probability 61% | Total xG 3.10. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 60% — the 3.10 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 61% reflects that both xG figures (1.83 / 1.27) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.

Picks & Verdict

On the Poisson output, Konyaspor are the pick at 50% — moderate model lean. Note a divergence: in-form Gaziantep FK (1.70 PPG) cuts against the Poisson lean — consider the strength-adjusted model over surface-level form results. Draw probability of 24% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Konyaspor if the outright odds are short.

On the goals line, Poisson's 3.10 combined xG gives a 60% probability to Over 2.5 — strong, supported by form averaging 3.5 goals per game and H2H averaging 3.1 goals per meeting.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 61%. Form rates corroborate: Konyaspor 70% | Gaziantep FK 90% BTTS from recent games.
