Esenler Erokspor host Mardin BB in a game whose shape is clear before a ball is kicked. The home side will likely hold the ball and push forward themselves, while the visitors prefer to drop deep and wait for the counter. The average possession over the last 10 matches of the two teams says exactly that: the home side sits at 57.3% while the visitors are below half. The form of the two teams is clearly different. Mardin BB have won their last two in a row and are unbeaten in their last two. Their defence is so tight they have conceded just 6 goals in 10 matches. Esenler Erokspor, meanwhile, have just beaten 1-0 at home and then drawn 1-1, but the overall season is still not good: only one win in 10 matches and just 6 goals scored. The game is likely to play out with the home side having more of the ball, but they must beware the moments when the visitors seize the chance to break. If Esenler Erokspor still cannot find a finishing touch as in many recent matches, the game could drag on and end with a close result. But with the visitors preferring to wait for their moment and the home side having to open the game themselves, this match tends toward the home side controlling the play and finding the opening goal first.
