Rizespor form and stats

Last season, Rizespor's Turkish Cup journey ended in the 5th round against Balkesirspor.

4-1-2 (win-draw-lost) are the Super Lig numbers at home for Rizespor so far this season. It’s been three wins in a row for Rizespor here at Caykur Didi Stadium, hoping to make this one the fourth consecutive victory.

The Rizespor supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Konyaspor in Super Lig and win 3-1. Heartbreak before that as Rizespor lost 0-2 at Denizlispor's place.

There will be little rest for Rizespor after this match as they are travelling to Kayserispor for a Super Lig game in only four days.

Rizespor are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 10 goals in 7 games. Rizespor are not conceding a lot of goals here at Caykur Didi Stadium in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 6 from 7 matches.

Samsunspor form and stats

Samsunspor's mission in Turkish Cup last season failed in the 3rd round against Diyarbakirspor.

Samsunspor have an excellent away record in the 2. Lig: Beyaz so far with 5-2-0 from 7 games. Things are running smoothly for Samsunspor who hasn't tasted defeat in their last 23 matches, regardless of venue and tournament. Their last defeat was against Kastamonuspor. Samsunspor are enjoying a nice run from their away games now, having played ten in a row without losing.

230 minutes! That's how long the Samsunspor goalkeeper and his defense have shut out their league opponents.

Samsunspor are travelling after their nice 3-0 home win in the 2. Lig: Beyaz against Saryer. That result followed a home victory 5-0 versus Sanlurfaspor in the 2. Lig: Beyaz.

The schedule is very tough for Samsunspor now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A 2. Lig: Beyaz game at Corum Belediyespor is waiting in only three days.

The travelling fans enjoy Samsunspor's attacking play in away games, having scored 13 goals in 7 league matches away. Samsunspor are tight as a drum on their travels, having allowed the opposition only 2 goals away.

Head 2 Head

Last ten meetings between the teams: Rizespor won 2, Samsunspor won 4 and 4 draws. 3 games with over 2,5 goals, 7 matches with two goals or less.
