Trabzonspor get ready to welcome Denizlispor for something different than the ordinary league football: The Turkish Cup 8th Finals leg 1 of 2.
It's quite the trip for Denizlispor when visiting Trabzonspor as the cities are 1200 kilometers apart.
Trabzonspor form and stats
Last season their Turkish Cup adventure ended in the quarter-finals against Umraniyespor.The story so far in the Super Lig for Trabzonspor at their home stadium is 5 wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats.
Trabzonspor's last game was hosting Kayserispor and winning 6-2. Before that, Trabzonspor had a Super Lig home game versus Kayserispor which ended with a victory 6-2.
As mentioned above, Trabzonspor "killed" Kayserispor in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (21 in 9 games), Trabzonspor's attacking play is working. Trabzonspor have conceded 11 in these home matches.
Denizlispor form and stats
Last season their Turkish Cup adventure ended in the 4th round.Playing away, Denizlispor have won 4 games, drawn 3 and suffered 2 defeats in the Super Lig this season. The mentioned statistics is only from the league, looking at the Turkish Cup stats, they have 3 wins, 1 draw and 0 losses both home and away.
It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Ankaragucu in their previous outing. The Super Lig match ended in a draw 2-2. A 1-5 loss hosting Alanyaspor before that.
Drawing 2-2 against Ankaragucu after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 2-0. Their manager M. Özdilek needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result.
