They have by far, been the best team in the league, having amassed a whopping 34 points from 16 games. As things stand, they are four points clear of Istanbul Basaksehir at the summit of the log.

With home advantage on their side this Sunday, Yigidos should have enough about themselves to deny ninth-placed Goztepe of all three points.
An enthralling and exciting game on the cards, expect Sivasspor to come away with maximum points, but not without huffing and puffing to grind out the result.

Sivasspor vs Goztepe Team News

Sivasspor set the pace at the top of the standings with a season-high record of 10 wins, 4 draws and just 2 losses from their 16 fixtures this season. They were on song on the last match-day against relegation-threatened Genclerbirligi in a frantic encounter at the Eryama Stadium.

However, despite their impressive showings on the road, they were on the cusp of defeat before firing home a dying minute goal to salvage an important point. The travelling supporters were in transports of delight as the ball went in, posting a 2-2 score-line on the board.

Goztepe, on the other hand, had a much tougher challenge of salvaging something from well-built customers Galatasaray on the last match-day. Goz Goz must have been scared shitless as they headed out of the tunnel to take on the Turkish giants.

Despite the odds highly stacked against them, they managed to pull off a Christmas miracle for the home supporters, grinding out an important 2-1 victory over Cimbom.

For this fixture, the home side have to be considered overwhelming favourites for the win, as every single stat point in the direction of a victory for Sivasspor.

Riza Calimbay’s men are currently leading the chasing pack in the Turkish Super Lig and will be looking to use home advantage to maximum effect on Sunday. They are a well-oiled goalscoring machine that have mustered the highest number of goals so far this season.

Also, Sivasspor have tasted nothing but success in nine of their previous eleven game across all competitions, and in six of their preceding seven in front of the home crowd.

When it comes to h2h encounters between these foes, the hosts have the upper hand having won four of their last six clashes against Goz Goz. Also, they have lost just twice at home this last decade against this opposition.

However, Goztepe are no push-overs as they have proved a formidable side this season. With four wins from their previous five games on the road, Ilhan Palut’s men definitely know how to grind out results on their travels.

Sivasspor vs Goztepe Prediction

Given both sides are on a roll at the moment, expect a thrilling encounter in this fixture at the Yeni 4 Eylul Stadyumu. Also, goals have not been difficult to come by for both sides in recent weeks.

As such, a clean sheet might be too much to expect from either of the two sides. Sivasspor should concede a goal, at the least, despite having home advantage to their name.

With goals going down both ends of the pitch, Sivasspor should edge this out very comfortably to pull further away from second-placed Istanbul Basaksehir on the log.
