Trabzonspor carries on dissapointing performance, this time losing at Turkish Cup.
Trabzonspor carries on its poor season which has carried on with the loss to Gumushanespor at the Turkish Cup Group H 1st week game where it has lost with 2:1 scoreline. Even through all of the big 4 had shown pretty poor performance at tournament after 1st week games, Trabzonspor case is different as it was aiming for a win.
With the way team has performed and also for providing almost first squad team at the game it became clear that it would take game and very likely whole Turkish Cup in serious manner. This is normal situation as it has very poor performance at the Super League and Turkish Cup could be an opportunity for them to regain some confidence and motivation. Teams which has big expectation but doesnt provide them always seem to provide top class performance at the domestic cup as an aim to end season at something to achieve and also to keep its mood high. Trabzonspor has once again dominated game in sense of controlling ball but weak capability convert chances to the goals or even get into target carries on providing team with poor results.
Trabzonspor so-called transition season is going way below its expectation and it needs to find solution for this issues. One of the best ways is to get attackers during midseason transfer window.
Fenerbahce needs to win Besiktas if it wants to fight for top of the league.
Looking at the standings of the Super League,it becomes pretty clear that Fenerbahce needs win against Besiktas much more as the point difference between two clubs is 4 points. In case, if Fenerbahce losses all this winning results at past week could become pointless.
Fenerbahce right now are focussed to win the game against of the main rivals for the fight for the top at the league. In similar manner as against Galatasaray, Fenerbahce shows full dominance at its home ground with winning at home for past 12 years. But it needs to be careful at this game, as Besiktas lately didnt lose at away for long time. Fenerbahce with latest top class performance at the Europa League and Super League does come out as strong favourite even through it is too close to call in derby games, especially in this game. But Fenerbahce needs to be specifically careful at the last minute of the game as Besiktas tends to improve its performance as game progresses and get into the top in the last minutes of the game.
Everyone at the Fenerbahce are aware how important is this game and it would be clear that technical staff, players and fans would do their share to win such an important game at this point of season.
Besiktas is more mentally tired before derby game.
Besiktas in other hand quite naturally has a chance to raise point difference to 7 points and have 2 games and 1 game in hand at the fight with Fenerbahce which is pretty good point difference. But recent performance by Besiktas does raise some worrying matters.
Even through Besiktas didnt lose games it did draw against Benfica at the Champions League and Basaksehirspor in the Super League. Those results are pretty normal however their will affect team motivation and confidence prior to game. Even through it tends for players to forget everything and focus into the game prior to the derbies. Besiktas might recieve one of the hardest games at this season as Fenerbahce would aim to dominate game and will aim not to allow team to have control. It needs to be stated that busy scheduling surely affects teams physically but also sometimes can affect mentally. With announcements it looks Besiktas has been affected also mentally. And even through Fenerbahce did seem to have one day less, it looks Besiktas could be one which might feel tired. In other hand, however almost whole squad didnt play at Turkish Cup at the midweek.
Besiktas needs to focus to get back to its performance which it had shown at the start of the season if it wants to win. Besiktas as stated needs also to focus game without having any mentally pressure at the team.
