The league table in Super Lig tells a story about these teams so far, with Beşiktaş leading Kayserispor by 14 points. Match preview to follow:
It's no vacation for neither Beşiktaş nor Kayserispor as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Beşiktaş form and stats
Beşiktaş, who have the most clean sheets (4) at home in Super Lig, have performed here at Vodafone Park this season with 4 wins from 6 Super Lig matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 2 games and lost 0. After failing to beat Istanbul Basaksehir here at Vodafone Park, Beşiktaş has put together a very nice winning streak on their own turf with four wins in a row. The team is doing great wherever they are playing as Beşiktaş has won five games in a row. The Ankaragucu match was the last time out without a victory.
Defensively the home team are doing well, with their goalkeeper Silviu Lung not having conceded a league goal in 218 minutes.
Beşiktaş's last game was hosting Kayserispor (placed 18th) and winning 3-0. Before that game, the 2-1 home victory against Slovan Bratislava.
Beşiktaş decided the match against Kayserispor in the first half, and held firmly on to their lead (3-0) without using too much effort. The team showed great control while saving some energy.
The Beşiktaş fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 9 goals in 6 league matches. Defensively Beşiktaş have been outstanding, conceding less than half a goal on average per home game in the league (2 in 6 games). For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Kayserispor form and stats
Kayserispor have only collected 2 points from their away games in the Super Lig, after 0-2-4 (6 played). Bitter travels for Kayserispor as they have lost five games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Antalyaspor match. Three has not been a lucky number for Kayserispor as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Fenerbahce match.
Kayserispor play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-3 to Beşiktaş (placed 6th). A loss against Sivasspor was the result prior to that, in a home game.
Kayserispor did not look prepared in the first half against Beşiktaş and lost the game during the first 45 minutes. They need to evaluate their pre-match routine before this one. Kayserispor goalkeeper Silviu Lung Jr. had a great day against Beşiktaş, but despite making 8 saves the loss could not be avoided.
As mentioned above, the bookmakers do not believe the away team will get anything from this match. Checking Kayserispor's match history for similar games we find two matches. The home team won 2 of these as expected, 2 of them by at least two goals. Kayserispor managed 0 draws and 0 surprise wins.
The attacking power of Kayserispor when travelling is not overwhelming with 5 goals scored from 6 league matches away. The opposition has been scoring high and low on Kayserispor's goalkeeper in away games this season, as they have let in 15 goals in 6 travels.
