Göztepe surpasses last season in goal scoring

Göztepe scored 11 goals in the first 9 weeks of the 2025-2026 Trendyol Süper Lig season. That is up from 8 goals scored in the same period last season, showing that the İzmir side has been more effective in attack.

The defensive picture is different. The team conceded 16 goals in the first 9 weeks of this season. Last season, it conceded only 3 goals in the same period. This gap shows a clear decline in defensive performance.

The İzmir club did not get off to the start it wanted in the new season. Göztepe won 3 matches, drew 3 and lost 3 in the first 9 weeks, leaving it on 12 points. In the same period last season, it had collected 16 points.

Although the team has come closer to its form with wins in recent weeks, it was 4 points behind last season's pace after the first 9 weeks. Fixing the defensive problems in the coming weeks will be important for improving the club's position in the league.
