In this article Tipsway presents you must know about the Super Lig game Sivasspor - Fenerbahçe!

Insights:
  • Fenerbahçe have the most scored goals (72) in Super Lig

These teams have little in common geographically as Fenerbahçe have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Sivasspor form and stats

4-6-4 (win-draw-lost) are the Super Lig numbers at home for Sivasspor so far this season.

A good away victory last time out for Sivasspor, who won 2-1 against Antalyaspor (placed 13th). Sivasspor goalkeeper Vural did an outstanding job against Antalyaspor with six saves, so vital to securing the victory.

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Trabzonspor in a game that was won 4-1.

Scoring bonanza? Who knows about this one, but we do know that 12 of the 16 latest league matches with this team has seen three or more goals.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Sivasspor, as the Turkish Cup home game vs Fenerbahçe is only four days away.

Sivasspor are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 19 goals in 14 games. On the other hand, Sivasspor have conceded 15 goals.

Fenerbahçe form and stats

Fenerbahçe's travelling support has been rewarded for their time and money so far this season, having witnessed Fenerbahçe collect 32 points from their 14 away matches in the Super Lig. 10 victories and 2 draws have created these points (and only 2 defeats). A great winning streak in away games for Fenerbahçe as they have managed to win four matches in a row as the visitors. Not since the Kayserispor have they travelled home without three points.

Fenerbahçe's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Istanbulspor that finished 3-3. Drawing 3-3 against Istanbulspor after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 2-0. Their manager de Jesus needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result. Güler got a match rating of 8.2 in that game, top player of the team. Güler scored two goals, dribled past the opponent 4 of 8 times and had 67 successful passes (of 71 total).

Preceding that game was the away victory against Istanbul Basaksehir with the score of 2-1.

Observe that 14 of this club's 15 most recent league fixtures have ended with three or more goals.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The Turkish Cup trip to Sivasspor.

The Fenerbahçe manager de Jesus has got the team scoring on the road, with 30 away goals in 14 league matches. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (13 so far).

Head 2 Head

Sivasspor and Fenerbahçe have duelled already this season: Fenerbahçe - Sivasspor 1-0. Head-to-head statistics (for the former ten meetings): Sivasspor won four games, three matches ended with a tie and Fenerbahçe managed three wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: five / five.
