Form Guide

Kasımpaşa — last 10 games: 5W 1D 4L, averaging 1.60 points per game. Last five: W L W D W. They are averaging 1.40 goals per game and conceding 1.50 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings (30%).

Kasımpaşa's form when playing at home: 5W 2D 3L across their last 10 home games (1.70 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.50 goals scored and 1.30 conceded per game.

Looking at their last 10 matches, Konyaspor stand at 2W 4D 4L — 1.00 PPG. Last five: L D W D L. Their scoring rate of 1.20 per game is modest, conceding 1.40 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings (30%).

Konyaspor's form when playing away from home: 2W 5D 3L across their last 10 road games (1.10 PPG). Away from home they average 0.90 goals scored and 1.40 conceded per game. 4 clean sheets from their last 10 away games (40%) shows they are capable of shutting up shop on the road.

On current form, Kasımpaşa have the edge — a 0.60 PPG advantage (1.60 vs 1.00) represents a meaningful gap. That momentum makes them the form-based pick, though if the outright price looks short, Draw No Bet is worth comparing.

Head to Head

Konyaspor have tended to come out on top in this fixture, winning 3 of the 5 H2H matches we hold against 0 for Kasımpaşa.

Goals have been a feature of this fixture — the 5 H2H matches in our data averaged 3.4 per game, which gives Over 2.5 a solid head-to-head foundation. The most recent of those, on 13 Apr 2024, ended Kasımpaşa 0–2 Konyaspor — a Konyaspor win.

The H2H data backs the away side. Konyaspor have won 3 of 5 H2H matches, and at 3.4 goals per game the goals market also points upward — the away win and Over 2.5 combination has a head-to-head case.

In-Play Data

Kasımpaşa trading profile (last 38 games, 19 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 90% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 50% of the time; of the 13 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 31%; BTTS occurs in 68% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 68% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 45%.

Konyaspor trading profile (last 38 games, 19 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 53% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 81% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 69% of those occasions; of the 10 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 60%; of the 8 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 25%; BTTS occurs in 53% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 37% of games (away games).

BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Kasımpaşa 66% versus Konyaspor 50%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Kasımpaşa 66% | Konyaspor 37%). Note also that Konyaspor surrender HT leads in 60% of cases while Kasımpaşa recover from half-time deficits to draw or win 31% of the time — a dynamic that could influence in-play positioning.

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Kasımpaşa 1.59 xG and Konyaspor 1.23 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: Kasımpaşa attack 1.018 / defence 1.033 | Konyaspor attack 0.943 / defence 0.947. League average goals — home 1.654 / away 1.263. Data: built from Kasımpaşa's last 38 games and Konyaspor's last 38. Some of those games are older results, so treat these probabilities as directional rather than precise.

Result probabilities: Kasımpaşa 45% | Draw 27% | Konyaspor 28%. Fair-value odds: Kasımpaşa 2.24 | Draw 3.69 | Konyaspor 3.54. Kasımpaşa hold a narrow Poisson edge at 45% — the draw (27%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 54% | BTTS Yes probability 58% | Total xG 2.83. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 54%/46% — the total xG of 2.83 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS Yes at 58% is only a slight lean — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Analysis Verdict

Konyaspor have the better head-to-head record in our data (3 wins to 0), but Kasımpaşa carry stronger current form — do not let the head-to-head record alone dictate your assessment.

On the Poisson output, Kasımpaşa are the pick at 45% — moderate model lean. Recent form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. With a 27% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Kasımpaşa offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win. The opposing side holds a 28% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

Poisson projects 2.83 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 54% probability — reasonable conviction, supported by the H2H data averaging 3.4 goals per game across 5 H2H matches.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 58%. Form rates are neutral — both teams scored in: Kasımpaşa 50% (last 10 home games) | Konyaspor 40% (last 10 away games).

The Poisson model's sample (Kasımpaşa 38 games, Konyaspor 38) includes some older results, so its projections carry extra uncertainty — weight recent form and the odds accordingly.
