Galatasaray has got very calm win at crucial week of the league.
Galatasaray has recieved one of the easiest wins during this season as it has won with very comfortable scoreline of 5:0 against Bursaspor during Super League 23rd week at the week where their main two rivals would be playing against each other.
As it was stated, main factor which has kept and in fact puts chances of league title into high posibility of Galatasaray is their very impressive performance at the home ground. Taking account that it has played against Bursaspor which among having very struggling period with its performance, it has also provided one of its worst performances during this season. Taking account that Galatasaray did come out with sole aim to win game with Bafetembi Gomis, who tends to be always hungry for goal, has been exceptionally seeking for goal as he has provided hat-trick and has led team forward. Another player who deserves mention is Garry Rodrigues which showed that both players have great understanding as he has provided asissts to the Gomis and also at one goal case has been vice versa. In overall, Galatasaray has recieved very comfortable scoreline with dominating game and not providing much chances to their opponents.
Bursaspor meanwhile has provided one of their weakest performance including recieving red card during 1st half and has failed both to stop Galatasaray attackers and not being able to provide attacking game themselves. It does look like Bursaspor head coach Paul Le Guen whose team had good spell at 1st half of season needs to do lots of work to improve game.
Galatasaray as been stated has recieved an important win at crucial week and would enjoy being leader at least for 48 hours but more important didnt get another loss of points at weeks where each point is important.
Trabzonspor needs to make sure that other players find goals during game.
Trabzonspor without doubt would aim to end its period without winning games as it would be meeting with Alanyaspor during Super League 23rd week and even through their have only lost to Basaksehirspor last week, their period of draws provided some poor results and possibly loss of motivation.
To all respect to the Alanyaspor , it is side which is capable to provide motivation to the Trabzonspor which it needs right now for at least to start aiming for Europa League spots but to achieve that it needs to start ways to make sure that other players at the front apart of Burak Yilmaz would start to score goals including at the game tomorrow. Taking account that Trabzonspor does tend to find chances and control ball effectively but is lacking to find goals and also Alanyaspor has lost its effective attacking game as it has sold Vagner Love to Besiktas, it would be reasonable to expect that game would be dominated by Trabzonspor. At short, it is certain that Trabzonspor are seeking and hungry for a win tomorrow and would provide their best to achieve such an result.
Trabzonspor are coming as favourites but their need to find solutions as been stated to find goals to get good result tomorrow and also in upcoming games if it wants to end season at high note.
Most stressful person at the derby game will be Cuneyt Cakir.
Turkish football fans and followers of Super League without doubt has been entered to the Besiktas and Fenerbahce derby game which would take place on 25th February. With everyone hoping to enjoy a great game, only person at the field who would have difficult time is referee of game Cuneyt Cakir.
With Besiktas and Fenerbahce head coaches, among others, has been pretty unhappy with referee work and decisions lately would surely provide an additional stressful moment for Cuneyt Cakir. It needs to be noted that Cakir has provided great performance during Champions League last 16 1st leg game between Chelsea and Barcelona as he has been praised by both sides after game. But it is known, sadly, that his performance at Europe is not same as in Turkey and hence with being at additional pressure he might be under extra pressure with providing decision. It is therefore to some extend crucial for game to be going through calm manner as both teams and referee would be happy and also fans as game would be focussed into game. In fact, compare to recent years, there is expectation that game would be played in calm manner without much stress.
However, this game is crucial for both sides especially for Besiktas due their stance and some willing to win might move into emotional and this is where role of Cuneyt Cakir as referee would become crucial.
