Rizespor have been very modest guests so far, leaving with zero points in all their 5 away matches played so far in the Super Lig. It's all red in the travel logs of Rizespor, having lost five matches in a row as the visiting team.

Impressive finishing from Selim Ay and Cemali Sertel secured the home win 2-1 against Kasimpasa in their previous game. Late drama in the previous game, when Selim Ay scored the winning goal eleven minutes into stoppage time to defeat Kasimpasa. Cemali Sertel, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 8.11. Sertel scored one goal and won 3 of 3 duels.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Giresunspor wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.
