Rizespor and Fatih Karagümrük have both delivered a "par" performance so far, to use a golfing expression. Both hold mid-table positions in the Super Lig.
- Rizespor have the most dropped points from leading position (22) in Super Lig
Rizespor and Fatih Karagümrük should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
These teams have little in common geographically as Fatih Karagümrük have to travel 1100 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
Rizespor form and stats
6 victories, 5 draws and 3 defeats. That’s what Rizespor have to build on here at Çaykur Didi Stadyumu in the Super Lig.
Rizespor are returning here after visiting Galatasaray in a Super Lig game and winning with a 4-3 scoreline. Milan Škoda, Fernando, Fernando Boldrin and Braian Samudio scored the goal(s). Sensational by Rizespor last match, beating Galatasaray away as big underdogs. Previous to that game, a home match hosting Hatayspor in a game that was won 1-0.
As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today? World class coaching! That was the thoughts of B. Uygun when Fernando scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 89th minute. Some amazing scenes last match, when Fernando scored the winning goal two minutes into stoppage time.
Rizespor are traveling soon after this match as the Super Lig match at Göztepe awaits in three days.
Rizespor are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 20 goals in 14 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Rizespor have conceded 18 in these home matches. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Fatih Karagümrük form and stats
There's been little loot from Fatih Karagümrük's travels as they have only collected 15 points from 15 away games in the Super Lig. Fatih Karagümrük only have 3 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 6 draws.
Karagümrük are travelling after their nice 3-0 home win in the Super Lig against Kayserispor (placed 16th). Prior to that match, the Karagümrük manager A. Canel faced defeat when travelling to Sivasspor and losing 0-1.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Hatayspor in just three days.
Karagümrük are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 18 away goals from 15 games (in the league). Karagümrük's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 23 goals from these trips.
