The league table is allowed to rest as Kayserispor and Fenerbahçe battle for Turkish Cup honors in this first 8th Finals leg of two fixtures.
Kayserispor form and stats
Kayserispor was eliminated in the 8th finals last season in the Turkish Cup. Akhisar Belediyespor was too strong.With 2 Super Lig wins, 2 draws and 4 defeats from their home games, Kayserispor are certainly not brimming with confidence. On the other hand, in the Turkish Cup, Kayserispor has performed like this (both home and away): 2 wins, 1 draw and 0 losses. Kayserispor has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager R. Prosinečki and the players.
Kayserispor lost their last game at Trabzonspor after a 2-6 scoreline. Before that game, the home loss against İstanbul Başakşehir with the scoreline 1-4.
Kayserispor were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one. Kayserispor's goalkeeper İsmail Çipe was extremely busy against Trabzonspor, saving the team from a uglier defeat with a stunning 9 saves.
Kayserispor are traveling soon after this match as the Super Lig match at Alanyaspor awaits in four days.
The Kayserispor fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 8 in 8 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 14 goals have been conceded.
