Fixture Analysis
İstanbulspor welcome Pendikspor to Necmi Kadıoğlu Stadyumu in Süper Lig (matchday 11). Kick-off is Saturday 4 November 2023 at 10:30 UK time.
Form Guide
İstanbulspor — last 10 games: 2W 2D 6L, averaging 0.80 points per game. Last five: L L L W L. They are averaging 1.00 goals per game and conceding 1.50 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings (10%).
İstanbulspor's home record over their last 10 home games: 3W 2D 5L (1.10 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.20 goals scored and 1.40 conceded per game.
Looking at their last 10 matches, Pendikspor stand at 1W 4D 5L — 0.70 PPG. Last five: D L L W L. Their scoring rate of 1.00 per game is modest, conceding 2.30 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. Conceding 2.30 per game is a high rate — their defence has been exposed regularly. Both teams have scored in 80% of their matches — a high rate that makes Yes a well-evidenced angle from their form.
On the road, Pendikspor have gone 1W 2D 2L in their last 5 away fixtures (1.00 PPG). Away from home they average 1.00 goals scored and 1.60 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 80% of their away matches — a high BTTS rate on the road that directly informs this fixture.
There is minimal separation in the form figures — İstanbulspor at 0.80 PPG versus Pendikspor's 0.70. The form guide is not providing a strong directional steer; the model and market data will carry more weight in the final assessment.
In-Play Profile
İstanbulspor in-play tendencies (last 10 games, 5 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 60% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 100% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 60% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 40% of games (home games); they fail to score in 40% of games.
Pendikspor in-play tendencies (last 10 games, 5 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 80% of their matches in away games; BTTS occurs in 80% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 60% of games (away games).
From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — İstanbulspor 50% and Pendikspor 80% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (İstanbulspor 40% | Pendikspor 60%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects İstanbulspor 1.35 xG and Pendikspor 1.13 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: İstanbulspor attack 0.868 / defence 1.086 | Pendikspor attack 0.893 / defence 1.075. League average goals — home 1.450 / away 1.168. Data: built from İstanbulspor's last 45 games and Pendikspor's last 10.
Result probabilities: İstanbulspor 40% | Draw 31% | Pendikspor 29%. Fair-value odds: İstanbulspor 2.53 | Draw 3.18 | Pendikspor 3.45. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome reaches 45%. The draw at 31% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 45% | BTTS Yes probability 53% | Total xG 2.49. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 55% — total xG of 2.49 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS Yes at 53% is only a slight lean — 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 İstanbulspor at 40% — marginal model lean. With a 31% draw probability, Draw No Bet on İstanbulspor offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win. The opposing side holds a 29% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.
The Poisson model projects 2.49 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 55% — a Poisson-only call with no corroboration from form or H2H.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 53% on Yes. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: İstanbulspor 40% (last 10 home games) | Pendikspor 80% (last 5 away games).

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Pendikspor beat İstanbulspor 2-4 at Necmi Kadıoğlu Stadyumu, Regular Season - 11, in the Süper Lig. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting İstanbulspor 1.35 xG and Pendikspor 1.13 xG, a combined 2.49. The scoreboard read 2-4 for 6 actual goals. Pendikspor outscored their 1.13 projection by 2.9. Those figures were built on strength ratings of İstanbulspor attack 0.87 / defence 1.09 against Pendikspor attack 0.89 / defence 1.07, drawn from 45/10 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it İstanbulspor 40% | Draw 31% | Pendikspor 29%, with İstanbulspor to win its most likely call at 40%. The actual Pendikspor win had been the model's second-ranked read at 29%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 45%. The game delivered 6, so it went over — the opposite of the projected direction. Over 1.5 had been 73% and landed. Over 3.5 was 24% and came in. On both teams to score, the model sat at 53% and the match saw both sides score — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 50% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (İstanbulspor 40%, Pendikspor 60%), a base rate that agreed with today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 65%, which matched the both-scored outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
İstanbulspor's trading profile (10 games, 5 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 50% of their matches — today it did.
Pendikspor's trading profile (10 games, 5 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 80% of their matches — today it did.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — İstanbulspor 0.80 PPG, Pendikspor 0.70 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Pendikspor win broke the near-deadlock. İstanbulspor (home/away splits) scored 2 against a 0.80 average — above their attacking norm and shipped 4 against a 1.40 concession average — a leakier day than usual. Pendikspor (home/away splits) scored 4 against a 1.00 average — above their attacking norm.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (hit). The data was on the wrong side of this result more often than not — a reminder that a single match sits well inside the model's variance.
