Full Analysis
Medas Konya Büyüksehir Belediyesi Stadium plays host to Konyaspor versus Kocaelispor in Süper Lig, Regular Season - 3. Kick-off: Saturday 29 August 2026 at 16:00 UTC.
Form & Momentum
Konyaspor have collected 1.30 PPG across 10 Süper Lig outings this season: 4W 1D 5L. Last five: L L L L L. Offensively they are averaging 1.50 goals per game, with 1.60 conceded. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Konyaspor have played only a handful of Süper Lig games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.
Konyaspor at Medas Konya Büyüksehir Belediyesi Stadium this season: 4W 4D 2L from 10 home games — 1.60 PPG on home soil. At home they are averaging 1.10 goals scored and 0.80 conceded per game. 4 home clean sheets from 10 games (40%) — a solid defensive base on their own ground.
Kocaelispor's overall Süper Lig record this term: 1W 4D 5L from 10 games (0.70 PPG). Last five: D L L L W. Their scoring rate of 0.50 per game is modest, conceding 1.30 — 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. Both teams have scored in just 30% of their games, reflecting a regular tendency to keep or record clean sheets. 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 2W 3D 5L from 10 away fixtures this term (0.90 PPG). Away from home they average 0.50 goals scored and 1.40 conceded per game. Away from home, both teams have scored in only 30% of games — a low rate that backs BTTS No when they travel.
Form favours the hosts. Konyaspor's 1.30 PPG return is 0.60 points per game ahead of Kocaelispor's 0.70 — a genuine gap in recent results that provides a statistically grounded case for backing the home side.
H2H History
Form and model data should carry more weight here — the historical record is too balanced to provide a directional steer. From 2 meetings: Konyaspor 1W, Kocaelispor 1W, 0D.
Attacking output has been a hallmark of this fixture. At 4.0 goals per game across 2 meetings, the Over 2.5 has a statistically grounded case from the head-to-head record alone. The most recent clash, on 14 Mar 2026, ended 2–1 with Konyaspor winning.
With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H-derived signal is in the goals market. At 4.0 goals per game historically, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle to extract from the head-to-head data.
Trading Data
Konyaspor goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (36 games, 18 at home): they score before half-time in 61% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 83% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 67% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 50% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 44% of games (home games).
Kocaelispor goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (36 games, 18 at away): they score before half-time in 56% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 76% of the time; BTTS occurs in 39% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 28% of games (away games); they fail to score in 44% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Konyaspor 64% versus Kocaelispor 36%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Konyaspor 56% | Kocaelispor 25%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Konyaspor 1.19 xG and Kocaelispor 0.86 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 0.838 / defence 0.964 | Kocaelispor attack 0.781 / defence 1.020. League average goals — home 1.390 / away 1.145. Data: 36 Konyaspor games / 36 Kocaelispor games used (Blended). A blend of current and prior-season data is applied to stabilise estimates early in the campaign.
Result probabilities: Konyaspor 43% | Draw 30% | Kocaelispor 27%. Fair-value odds: Konyaspor 2.33 | Draw 3.33 | Kocaelispor 3.70. 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 40% | 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 40% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Final Verdict
Poisson rates Konyaspor as the most likely outcome at 43% — marginal model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw probability of 30% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Konyaspor if the outright odds are short.
Poisson projects 2.05 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 34% probability — reasonable conviction, supported by form averaging 1.9 goals per game.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 40% on No. Form rates corroborate: Konyaspor 40% | Kocaelispor 30% BTTS from recent games.
The Poisson model is drawing on Blended data (36 games minimum) — early-season projections carry additional uncertainty. Weight the live form and odds signals accordingly.

Behind the Numbers
The model rates Konyaspor's attack at 0.84x the league average against Kocaelispor's defence at 1.02x — combine the two and it projects 1.19 expected goals for the hosts. Flip it around — Kocaelispor's attack (0.78x) against Konyaspor's defence (0.96x) — and the away total comes out at 0.86.
The sample (36/36 games) mixes this season and last, since the current campaign is still relatively young.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Kocaelispor beat Konyaspor 1-2 at Medas Konya Büyüksehir Belediyesi Stadium, Regular Season - 3, in the Süper Lig. That is the final score; the rest of this report grades it against what the data forecast beforehand.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Konyaspor 1.19 xG and Kocaelispor 0.86 xG, a combined 2.05. The scoreboard read 1-2 for 3 actual goals. Kocaelispor outscored their 0.86 projection by 1.1. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Konyaspor attack 0.84 / defence 0.96 against Kocaelispor attack 0.78 / defence 1.02, drawn from 36/36 games (Blended).
On the result, the model split it Konyaspor 43% | Draw 30% | Kocaelispor 27%, with Konyaspor to win its most likely call at 43%. The actual Kocaelispor win 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 34%. The game delivered 3, so it went over — a miss for the goals model. Over 1.5 had been 61% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 40% and the match saw both sides score — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 40% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Konyaspor 56%, Kocaelispor 25%), 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
Konyaspor's trading profile (36 games, 18 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 64% of their matches — today it did.
Kocaelispor's trading profile (36 games, 18 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 36% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 31% of the time, and conceded here.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — Konyaspor 1.11 PPG, Kocaelispor 1.11 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Kocaelispor win broke the near-deadlock. Konyaspor (home/away splits) shipped 2 against a 1.11 concession average — a leakier day than usual. Kocaelispor (home/away splits) scored 2 against a 0.61 average — above their attacking norm.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 0 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss). A poor return for the projections: the match defied the majority of what the numbers expected.
