Our feeling is that Göztepe should really score on multiple occasions against Giresunspor, who will need to fight hard scoring a goal of their own.

They’ll be doing the bulk of the defending here.

We can therefore see a high-scoring 0-3 winning score with maybe even more goals for Göztepe at full-time.
