Analysis

Kocaelispor make the trip to Diyarbakir Stadium to face Amed in Süper Lig, Regular Season - 19. The match kicks off on Sunday 31 January 2027 at 12:00 UTC.

Form & Momentum

Amed have collected 2.00 PPG across 3 Süper Lig outings this season: 2W 0D 1L. Last five: W L W. Offensively they are averaging 1.67 goals per game, with 1.00 conceded. 1 clean sheet from 3 outings provides some defensive foundation. Both teams have scored in just 33% of their matches, indicating a tendency toward clean sheets or low-scoring outcomes. Amed have played only a handful of Süper Lig games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.

Kocaelispor's overall Süper Lig record this term: 2W 4D 4L from 10 games (1.00 PPG). Last five: L L L W W. Their scoring rate of 0.70 per game is modest, conceding 0.90 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Kocaelispor have played only a handful of Süper Lig games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.

On the road, Kocaelispor have gone 3W 2D 5L from 10 away fixtures this term (1.10 PPG). Away from home they average 0.70 goals scored and 1.50 conceded per game.

The points-per-game gap of 1.00 in Amed's favour (2.00 vs 1.00) is a statistically meaningful difference. The hosts are the form pick here, with draw protection the sensible hedge given the away side's competitiveness.

H2H History

The head-to-head record is closely matched — Amed lead 0W to 1W over the last 1 encounters, with 0 draws, though neither side has established a commanding advantage.

The 1 previous meetings have averaged 2.0 goals per game — a neutral rate that provides no strong lean on the goals market from the H2H alone. The most recent clash, on 24 Aug 2026, ended 0–2 with Kocaelispor winning.

The head-to-head offers no strong directional steer in either the result or goals markets. Form, the predictive model and current market pricing should carry more weight than the historical record for this fixture.

Trading Data

Amed goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (3 games): they score before half-time in 67% of fixtures; BTTS occurs in 33% of their matches; Over 2.5 goals lands in 67% of games; they fail to score in 33% of games.

Kocaelispor goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (3 games): they score before half-time in 100% of fixtures; BTTS occurs in 33% of their matches; Over 2.5 goals lands in 33% of games; they fail to score in 33% of games.

The in-play data supports BTTS No — both teams show low combined scoring rates (Amed 33% | Kocaelispor 33%). The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Amed 67% | Kocaelispor 33%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Amed 1.63 xG and Kocaelispor 1.04 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: Amed attack 1.122 / defence 0.962 | Kocaelispor attack 0.888 / defence 0.992. League average goals — home 1.461 / away 1.218. Data: 3 Amed games / 37 Kocaelispor games used (Blended). A blend of current and prior-season data is applied to stabilise estimates early in the campaign.

Result probabilities: Amed 51% | Draw 25% | Kocaelispor 24%. Fair-value odds: Amed 1.96 | Draw 4.00 | Kocaelispor 4.17. Amed hold a narrow Poisson edge at 51% — the draw (25%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 50% | BTTS probability 52% | Total xG 2.67. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 50%/50% — the total xG of 2.67 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 52% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Picks & Verdict

On the Poisson output, Amed are the pick at 51% — moderate model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw probability of 25% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Amed if the outright odds are short.

On the goals line, Poisson's 2.67 combined xG gives a 50% probability to Under 2.5 — Poisson-only — limited corroboration.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 52%. This conflicts with form data: Amed 33% | Kocaelispor 40% from recent games — a notable divergence.

The Poisson model is drawing on Blended data (3 games minimum) — early-season projections carry additional uncertainty. Weight the live form and odds signals accordingly.
