Goal Statistics

A PG of 2.3 is decent for Galatasaray in their clash with Kocaelispor, as is their run of scoring 1 goal or more in 37 consecutive Super Lig outings.

An absolutely awful PG of just 0.8 should cause concerns for Kocaelispor fans, as should a 5 Super Lig matches run in which they have failed to score more than 1 goal.
