Both clubs have struggled to score, each averaging zero goals per game at home or away, but their recent form shows they can still break the dead‑lock. Kocaelispor’s five‑match run (L‑D‑L‑L‑L) includes a 1‑1 draw that proved they can hit the target, while Amed’s lone recent fixture is a 3‑0 win that demonstrates they have the firepower to open the scoring.

The model rates the chance of both sides scoring at 54.9%, the strongest single probability across the available markets.
Show the maths

Show the maths
Our Poisson model, built from each side's real season scoring and conceding rates, has Kocaelispor at 37.1%, the draw at 25.8%, and Amed at 37.1% to win.
The single most likely scoreline in our model is 1-1 at 12.2% — treat any single scoreline price with caution given how spread out the probability distribution is across a low-scoring match.

Form Guide — Last 5
Kocaelispor
Kocaelispor’s last five league outings read L‑D‑L‑L‑L, featuring a 1‑1 draw at Kasımpaşa (A) and a 0‑1 defeat to Gençlerbirliği (A). The draw shows they can still find the net, while the three consecutive losses underline a defensive frailty that makes conceding a goal likely.
Amed
Amed’s recent league form is a single 3‑0 home victory over Erzurumspor FK, highlighting a capacity to score multiple times when in rhythm. Though only one match is listed, the three‑goal output suggests they possess the ability to breach Kocaelispor’s defence.
Head-to-Head
In four recent meetings, the scores have been 1‑0, 3‑0, 1‑2 and 3‑0, with each side scoring at least once in the 1‑2 encounter, confirming that both teams have historically been able to find the net against each other.
