Pre-Match Analysis

Samsunspor and Çorum FK meet at Samsun 19 Mayis Stadyumu in Süper Lig, Regular Season - 5. This fixture gets under way on Sunday 13 September 2026 at 12:00 UTC.

Form & Momentum

Samsunspor have collected 1.90 PPG across 10 Süper Lig outings this season: 6W 1D 3L. Last five: L W D W L. They are averaging 2.00 goals per game — a high-scoring output that makes them a genuine attacking threat in any fixture. 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. Samsunspor have played only a handful of Süper Lig games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.

Samsunspor's form when playing at home: 4W 4D 2L across 10 games at Samsun 19 Mayis Stadyumu this term (1.60 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.60 goals scored and 1.30 conceded per game.

Çorum FK's overall Süper Lig record this term: 0W 1D 2L from 3 games (0.33 PPG). Last five: D L L. Their scoring rate of 1.33 per game is modest, conceding 3.00 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. Conceding 3.00 per game is a high rate — their defensive vulnerabilities have been exposed regularly this season. Both teams have scored in 67% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market. Çorum FK have played only a handful of Süper Lig games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.

The points-per-game gap of 1.57 in Samsunspor's favour (1.90 vs 0.33) is a statistically meaningful difference. The hosts are the form pick here, with draw protection the sensible hedge given the away side's competitiveness.

Trading

Samsunspor half-time and goal-timing data (3 games): they score before half-time in 100% of fixtures; they lead at the break 67% of the time; BTTS occurs in 33% of their matches; Over 2.5 goals lands in 33% of games; they fail to score in 33% of games.

Çorum FK half-time and goal-timing data (3 games): they score before half-time in 67% of fixtures; BTTS occurs in 67% of their matches; Over 2.5 goals lands in 67% of games; Over 3.5 in 67%; they fail to score in 33% of games.

BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Samsunspor 33% versus Çorum FK 67%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Samsunspor 33% | Çorum FK 67%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Samsunspor 2.36 xG and Çorum FK 1.55 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: Samsunspor attack 1.029 / defence 1.168 | Çorum FK attack 1.087 / defence 1.571. League average goals — home 1.461 / away 1.217. Çorum FK bring a strong defensive rating of 1.571 — this is suppressing Samsunspor's projected output below what their attack strength alone would suggest. Data: 37 Samsunspor games / 3 Çorum FK games used (Blended). A blend of current and prior-season data is applied to stabilise estimates early in the campaign.

Result probabilities: Samsunspor 56% | Draw 19% | Çorum FK 25%. Fair-value odds: Samsunspor 1.79 | Draw 5.26 | Çorum FK 4.00. The model has a clear lean to Samsunspor (56%) — a 31pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 75% | BTTS probability 71% | Total xG 3.91. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 75% — a total xG of 3.91 means the expected score alone exceeds the 2.5 threshold, making the Over not just likely but structurally supported by both sides' attack/defence profiles. BTTS Yes at 71% reflects that both xG figures (2.36 / 1.55) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.

Final Verdict

Poisson rates Samsunspor as the most likely outcome at 56% — clear model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 19% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.

The Poisson model projects 3.91 xG in total — Over 2.5 at 75% — reasonable confidence, supported by form averaging 3.6 goals per game.

Poisson assigns a 71% probability to BTTS Yes based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate: Samsunspor 50% | Çorum FK 67% BTTS from recent games.

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.
