Match preview: Kocaelispor vs Samsunspor
Kocaelispor and Samsunspor are set to face each other in the 2nd round of the Turkish Super League. These teams have clashed twice recently: on 21 January 2022, when Samsunspor secured a 3–0 victory, and on 28 August 2021, when Kocaelispor emerged victorious with a 1–0 win. The home advantage may play a significant role, given the substantial differences in home versus away performances for both teams.
Team analysis: Kocaelispor
The home side will enter this second round following a defeat in their opening match in the League against Trabzonspor, losing 1-0. Kocaelispor tends to perform markedly better at home; in their last 30 matches, they recorded 4 wins, 7 draws, and 4 losses away, compared to 9 wins, 3 draws, and just 3 losses on home soil. In the last 10 home matches across all competitions, Kocaelispor has managed to win 6, draw 2, and lose 2. However, defensive solidity has been lacking, as they conceded goals in 8 of those 10 games. Notably, they scored 13 of their 37 goals in the final minutes (31’–45′).
After debuting with a loss to Trabzonspor, Kocaelispor will be looking to improve. They typically deploy a classic 4-3-3 formation, with Bruno Petkovic, Ahmet Sağat, and Ryan Mendes leading the attack. Petkovic, their key signing, is expected to make a significant impact in critical moments. However, defender Mateusz Wieteska is injured and will miss this match.
Team analysis: Samsunspor
The away team comes into this second round following a victorious start to the League, having won their opening match against Gençlerbirliği 2-1. Samsunspor traditionally struggles on the road; their recent 30-match record shows 3 wins, 6 draws, and 6 losses away, with 9 wins, 2 draws, and 4 losses at home. In their last 10 away matches, they have only won 2, and drawn 4 while losing 4. Defensive weaknesses are evident, conceding goals in 8 of the last 10 games, although their attack found the net in 9 of those matches. Recent away games have seen fewer goals, with 9 of their last 21 resulting in under 1.5 goals. They have faced the first goal against them in 15 matches, managing to overturn the score just twice.
Samsunspor fulfilled expectations by securing a 2-1 victory against Gençlerbirliği in the first round, with Carlo Holse and Marius Moundilmadji on the scoresheet. They maintain a squad similar to last season and typically operate in a 4-3-3 formation, featuring Moundilmadji, Arbnor Muja, and Emre Kílínç in their attacking trio, with Holse and Olivier Ntcham providing midfield support while also contributing to finishing. Unfortunately, right-back Anthony Musaba is injured and will be unavailable for this match.
