Samsunspor's recent run reads very differently. One win, one draw and four defeats in their last six, including a heavy 1-5 home loss to Çorum FK. Their only win in that spell came away at Rizespor.

Amed arrive with real momentum, Samsunspor without much at all.

Comparative Team Statistics: Samsunspor vs Amed

Head-to-head: not much to go on

These two have met four times, but the most recent came back in 2020 and all of the meetings were in the second tier. Both clubs have moved on considerably since then, with Amed promoted and both now in the top division.

That history includes a Samsunspor win, an Amed win and a draw, but it tells us very little about how either side is playing now.

Where they sit

Six games into the season, Amed are top with 13 points, having won four and lost just once. Samsunspor sit 16th with four points from the same number of matches, having won only once themselves.

Amed's goal difference is strongly positive, while Samsunspor have already conceded more than they've scored. It's an early snapshot rather than a settled picture, but it lines up with what the recent form shows.

Key men to watch

G. Orban has been central to Amed's start, scoring seven goals in six matches and chipping in with assists too. D. Sabia has also found the net a few times, giving Amed more than one route to goal.

E. Krasniqi x 3

For Samsunspor, Saikuba Jarju has been involved in their more productive moments going forward despite the results. Amed's Krasniqi has picked up a few cautions along the way, worth noting given how often he's been involved in the final third.

How this might play out

Samsunspor's home form hasn't been much better than their away form this season, with a heavy defeat and a draw against Göztepe among their six league games at home. That's not the platform you'd want against a side scoring as freely as Amed.

Amed have shown they can win comfortably and grind out results too, with that draw at Kasımpaşa showing they're not unbeatable. If Samsunspor can tighten up defensively, there's a route back into this one, but the recent pattern doesn't favour them.
