Analysis & Preview
Gaziantep FK travel to Esenyurt Necmi Kadıoğlu Stadyumu to take on İstanbulspor in Süper Lig (matchday 25). The game is scheduled for Sunday 11 February 2024 at 13:00 UK time.
Form Analysis
Looking at their last 10 matches, İstanbulspor stand at 1W 3D 6L — 0.60 PPG. Last five: D W L D L. They are averaging 0.70 goals per game and conceding 1.70 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings (20%).
İstanbulspor's form when playing at home: 2W 2D 6L across their last 10 home games (0.80 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.00 goals scored and 1.80 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 70% of their home games — an outstanding BTTS rate that is a key data point for this fixture.
Across their last 10 games, Gaziantep FK have recorded 1W 6D 3L — 0.90 PPG. Last five: L D D L D. Their scoring rate of 1.30 per game is modest, conceding 1.40 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings (20%). Both teams have scored in 70% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.
Gaziantep FK away from home: 3W 2D 5L from their last 10 away games — 1.10 PPG on the road. Away from home they average 1.30 goals scored and 1.50 conceded per game.
The form comparison is too close to call — 0.60 PPG (İstanbulspor) versus 0.90 (Gaziantep FK). When the figures are this level, no pick can be reliably derived from recent results alone.
H2H Record
There is little to separate the sides in our head-to-head data. From 3 H2H matches, İstanbulspor have won 1, Gaziantep FK 1, with 1 draw — a balanced record that offers no clear steer on its own. With only 3 H2H matches to go on, treat this as a light input.
The 3 H2H matches in our data averaged 2.3 goals per game — a neutral rate that gives no strong lean on the goals market from the H2H alone. The most recent of those, on 22 Sep 2023, ended İstanbulspor 0–2 Gaziantep FK — a Gaziantep FK win.
The head-to-head data offers no strong steer in either the result or goals markets. Form, the model and current market pricing should carry more weight for this fixture.
Trading Patterns
İstanbulspor in-play and half-time data (last 59 games, 29 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 79% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 92% of the time; of the 11 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 46%; BTTS occurs in 55% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 55% of games (home games); they fail to score in 34% of games.
Gaziantep FK in-play and half-time data (last 59 games, 29 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 74% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 93% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 57% of those occasions; of the 10 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 60%; BTTS occurs in 38% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 62% of games (away games); they fail to score in 41% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — İstanbulspor 49% versus Gaziantep FK 46%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (İstanbulspor 54% | Gaziantep FK 59%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects İstanbulspor 1.10 xG and Gaziantep FK 1.63 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: İstanbulspor attack 0.769 / defence 1.297 | Gaziantep FK attack 1.078 / defence 0.976. League average goals — home 1.473 / away 1.166. İstanbulspor's attack rating of 0.769 is below the league average, which holds their xG down at 1.10. İstanbulspor's defence rating of 1.297 (above 1 = concedes more than average) is pushing Gaziantep FK's projected output up. Data: built from İstanbulspor's last 60 games and Gaziantep FK's last 59.
Result probabilities: İstanbulspor 23% | Draw 29% | Gaziantep FK 47%. Fair-value odds: İstanbulspor 4.26 | Draw 3.41 | Gaziantep FK 2.12. Gaziantep FK hold a narrow Poisson edge at 47% — the draw (29%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 51% | BTTS Yes probability 56% | Total xG 2.73. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 51%/49% — the total xG of 2.73 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS Yes at 56% is only a slight lean — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Summary & Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is Gaziantep FK at 47% — moderate model lean. With a 29% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Gaziantep FK offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.
Poisson projects 2.73 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 51% probability — reasonable conviction, supported by recent form (İstanbulspor's last 10 home games and Gaziantep FK's last 10 away games) averaging 2.8 goals per game.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 56%. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: İstanbulspor 70% (last 10 home games) | Gaziantep FK 40% (last 10 away games).

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Gaziantep FK beat İstanbulspor 1-3 at Esenyurt Necmi Kadıoğlu Stadyumu, Regular Season - 25, in the Süper Lig. The remainder of the report sets that outcome against the pre-match model, the markets and the teams' data profiles.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting İstanbulspor 1.10 xG and Gaziantep FK 1.63 xG, a combined 2.73. The scoreboard read 1-3 for 4 actual goals. Gaziantep FK outscored their 1.63 projection by 1.4. Those figures were built on strength ratings of İstanbulspor attack 0.77 / defence 1.30 against Gaziantep FK attack 1.08 / defence 0.98, drawn from 60/59 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it İstanbulspor 23% | Draw 29% | Gaziantep FK 47%, with Gaziantep FK to win its most likely call at 47%. The result followed the model's preferred path, landing its top-rated outcome.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 51%. The game delivered 4, so it went over — in line with the projection. Over 1.5 had been 78% and landed. Over 3.5 was 29% and came in. On both teams to score, the model sat at 56% and the match saw both sides score — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 57% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (İstanbulspor 54%, Gaziantep FK 59%), a base rate that agreed with today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 48%, which did not match the both-scored outcome.
