Rizespor form and stats

There's been little loot from Rizespor's travels as they have only collected 0 points from 8 away games in the Super Lig. Rizespor only have 0 wins to counter their 8 defeats and 0 draws. The manager Hamzaoğlu is not happy with the away performances in the Super Lig so far, as all 8 matches have been lost.

Rizespor won their last game, 1-0 versus Yeni Malatyaspor played at home. Hümmet came off the bench to score the winning goal in the match against Yeni Malatyaspor last time out, making the manager Hamzaoğlu feel like a tactical genius. Defender Holmén was the best team player with a rating of 7.63. Holmén won 8 of 11 duels.

That result followed a home victory 3-1 versus Goztepe.

A quick return to home after this game, as Rizespor are hosting Gazisehir Gaziantep in the Super Lig only four days away.
