The Konyaspor players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their away fixture against Istanbul Basaksehir recently, that ended in a 2-0 defeat.  They achieved 46% possession in that match and had 11 strikes at goal, with 2 hitting the target, up against Istanbul Basaksehir's tally of 12 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.  

While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 5, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 7 goals and some valuable points in the process.  So far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 20 of their 24 games.  

They have been performing well at Medaş Konya Büyükşehir Stadyumu recently and are unbeaten in their last 6 home games.

On the back of a tough 3-0 home defeat by Caykur Rizespor, Kasimpasa manager Emre Belözoğlu will have some work to do to get his team in a confident mindset.  In that game they had 53% possession and managed 13 attempts on goal, with 4 on target, compared to Caykur Rizespor who had 14 attempts and 6 on target.  

Belözoğlu will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 6 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 11 goals and, as a result, lost some important points.  They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.  

It's been a bad run of form of late for them, having racked up 4 losses and only a single victory in their last 6 league matches, so they'll need to turn things around if they want to start climbing the table.  

Pape Guèye has scored 2 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Konyaspor.
