That's how they've played so far. Where the model has Kocaelispor finishing in May, and the odds on going down, come with a free account.

What the numbers say

Season to date, measured against the rest of the division.

Attack

Wasteful, not toothless

Scoring about 37% below what their shot volume supports. Finishing that far below the run rate usually corrects.

0.63

goals per expected

Defence

Hard to score against

4 conceded in 6, 0.67 a game. Whatever else is wrong, it is not the back line.
