Yeni Malatyspor v Kayserispor

Just the one bet in Turkey, where we fancy Yeni Malatyspor to get the better of Kayserispor after starting the season much the stronger side.

The hosts are 6th in the table after collecting 13 points from their opening eight matches, and the numbers back it up. Shot ratio, they are showing a healthy 55%, with shot-on-target ratio up at 58% - and both metrics are trending upwards on the most recent results. They rank 7th for Shots taken per match (13.5 per match), and 6th for Shots in the Box.

Comparing those to Kayserispor, we see 38.5% shot-ratio, and 42% shots-on-tagret. Ranking 15th (of 18th) in shots per match (10.4) sees them only just off the bottom and 16th for Shots in the Box. Most importantly they are ranked 2nd for Shots faced, which a whopping 16.8 per match, leaving them on a combined scale as the worst side in the division. Again, backed up by their results so far which have seen them collect just four points from eight matches and fail to win as yet.

Last season Malatyspor recorded a 9-4-4 record at home in Super Lig – in more detail that record improves to 5-3-1 against sides in the bottom half.

The hosts should win this one with ease, so take them on the Asian Handicap – you can back them at 23/20 on the -1.25 line. That means you win the who bet at 23/20 if they won by two goals, and get half your stake back if they win by exactly one goal. If they don’t win, you lose your bet completely.
