Full Analysis
Çotanak Stadyumu plays host to Giresunspor versus İstanbulspor in Süper Lig, Regular Season - 13. Kick-off: Saturday 5 November 2022 at 11:30 UTC.
Form & Momentum
Giresunspor have collected 0.90 PPG across 10 Süper Lig outings this season: 2W 3D 5L. Last five: D L L D L. They are averaging 0.60 goals per game and conceding 1.40 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. This season is still relatively young for Giresunspor, so this record blends games from this season and last.
In front of their own supporters this season, Giresunspor have posted 3W 4D 3L at Çotanak Stadyumu — 1.30 PPG. At home they are averaging 1.10 goals scored and 1.00 conceded per game.
İstanbulspor (all games): 2W 2D 6L across 10 Süper Lig outings this term — 0.80 points per game. Last five: W L L L L. Their scoring rate of 1.00 per game is modest, conceding 2.00 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. Conceding 2.00 per game is a high rate — their defensive vulnerabilities have been exposed regularly this season. 1 clean sheet 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 İstanbulspor, so this record blends games from this season and last.
İstanbulspor away from home this season: 2W 1D 3L from 6 away games — 1.17 PPG on the road. Away from home they average 0.83 goals scored and 1.17 conceded per game.
Neither side holds a meaningful form edge. The 0.90 vs 0.80 PPG split is negligible — model and market signals should carry more analytical weight for this one.
Trading & In-Play
Giresunspor — key trading statistics (11 games, 5 at home): they score before half-time in 40% of fixtures 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 50% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 40% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 20% of games (home games); they fail to score in 36% of games.
İstanbulspor — key trading statistics (11 games, 5 at away): they score before half-time in 60% of fixtures in away games; BTTS occurs in 60% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 40% of games (away games); they fail to score in 36% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Giresunspor 46% versus İstanbulspor 54%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Giresunspor 36% | İstanbulspor 54%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Giresunspor 1.12 xG and İstanbulspor 0.92 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: Giresunspor attack 0.775 / defence 0.918 | İstanbulspor attack 0.764 / defence 0.999. League average goals — home 1.454 / away 1.317. Giresunspor's attack strength of 0.775 is below the league average — the 1.12 xG projection reflects a team that scores at a discount to the division norm. Data: 49 Giresunspor games / 11 İstanbulspor games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Giresunspor 40% | Draw 30% | İstanbulspor 30%. Fair-value odds: Giresunspor 2.50 | Draw 3.33 | İstanbulspor 3.33. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 30% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 34% | BTTS probability 41% | Total xG 2.05. Under 2.5 is the strongly backed market at 66% probability — total xG of 2.05 sits well below the 2.5 threshold. The model is projecting a tight, low-scoring match based on both sides' defensive quality. BTTS probability of 41% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Final Verdict
Poisson rates Giresunspor as the most likely outcome at 40% — marginal model lean. Draw probability of 30% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Giresunspor if the outright odds are short. The opposing side holds a 30% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.
Poisson projects 2.05 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 34% probability — reasonable conviction, supported by form averaging 2.0 goals per game.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 41% on No. Form rates are neutral: Giresunspor 50% | İstanbulspor 50%.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Giresunspor beat İstanbulspor 3-2 at Çotanak Stadyumu, Regular Season - 13, 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 Giresunspor 1.12 xG and İstanbulspor 0.92 xG, a combined 2.05. The scoreboard read 3-2 for 5 actual goals. Giresunspor beat their projection by 1.9 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. İstanbulspor outscored their 0.92 projection by 1.1. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Giresunspor attack 0.78 / defence 0.92 against İstanbulspor attack 0.76 / defence 1.00, drawn from 49/11 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Giresunspor 40% | Draw 30% | İstanbulspor 30%, with Giresunspor to win its most likely call at 40%. That is exactly how it finished — the model's leading outcome was vindicated.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 34%. The game delivered 5, so it went over — the opposite of the projected direction. Over 1.5 had been 61% and landed. Over 3.5 was 15% and came in. On both teams to score, the model sat at 41% and the match saw both sides score — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 45% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Giresunspor 36%, İstanbulspor 54%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 50%, which matched the both-scored outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Giresunspor's trading profile (11 games, 5 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 46% of their matches — today it did.
İstanbulspor's trading profile (11 games, 5 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 54% of their matches — today it did.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — Giresunspor 0.82 PPG, İstanbulspor 0.73 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Giresunspor win broke the near-deadlock. Giresunspor (home/away splits) scored 3 against a 0.80 average — above their attacking norm and shipped 2 against a 1.20 concession average — a leakier day than usual. İstanbulspor (home/away splits) scored 2 against a 1.00 average — above their attacking norm and shipped 3 against a 1.20 concession average — a leakier day than usual.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (hit), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss). 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.
