Let's look at the form. Eyüpspor have managed just one win in their last ten games. That's not great. They're averaging 0.50 points per game and scoring only 0.50 goals per match. Samsunspor, on the other hand, have four wins in their last ten, averaging 1.50 points per game. That's three times the points. You can see the graft difference right there.

Samsunspor away are scoring 1.20 goals per game.

Defensively, Samsunspor are tighter too. They've kept a clean sheet in 50% of their recent games, compared to Eyüpspor's 20%. Eyüpspor are conceding 1.60 goals per game overall, which is a leaky defence. Samsunspor are conceding 1.30. The goal expectancy suggests around 2.0 goals total, but the away side's attack is the stronger engine here.
