Samsunspor vs Pendikspor Prediction & Match Preview

Samsunspor are dreamland as they are on a 3-match winning streak at home and four wins overall in their last five games (4W – 1L). To crown their winning run at home, Samsunspor have kept three clean sheets in the process.

Three consecutive away defeats, zero points from possible nine is a stark summary of how poor the form and position of Pendikspor is on the table coupled with just one clean sheet in the process.

Samsunspor home form makes for very interesting reading as they are backed with some impressive stats. The twelve placed team have recorded four timely victories to see them go five points clear of the relegation zone.

The hosts have got ample opportunity to add more points on the board to further distance themselves from the relegation conversation when Pendikspor rolls into town on Thursday at the Samsun 19 Mayis Stadyumu.

Samsunspor have scored at least two goals in four of their last five home games against the likes of Antalyaspor, Kayserispor, Rizespor and Ankaragucu; a clear indication they can easily find the back of the net against opposition defense.

Three consecutive away defeats at the hands of Sivasspor, Fenerbahce and Karagumruk with just one clean sheet in the last four away outings summarizes the struggles of visitors in the Turkish league.

With ten goals conceded in the last three away outings and sixty-one goals conceded over, it’s safe to say that the visitors have got the worst defense in the division.
