Competition: Sat 12.February
Match begins: 13:00 (UTC)
Venue: Çotanak Stadyumu

The guesting Fenerbahçe side should be odds-on at Giresunspor, as the away team own a 11 point edge from their 24 league fixtures this season.

Insights:
  • Giresunspor have the fewest scored goals in the first half (6) in Super Lig
  • Fenerbahçe haven’t played a single 0-0 game.

Fenerbahçe have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 900 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Fenerbahçe could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Turkish Cup game only four sleeps ago.

Giresunspor form and stats

When playing at home in the Super Lig, Giresunspor have managed 4 wins, 2 draws and suffered 6 defeats from 12 games. Game days at Çotanak Stadyumu have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Giresunspor as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.

In their previous game, the manager Keleş led his Giresunspor to a defeat away at Konyaspor. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Çotanak Stadyumu. Serginho (midfield was the top team player in that game with a rating of 7.32/10. Serginho hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 4 of 5 times.

Preceding that match was the home game against Alanyaspor that was lost 1-3.
