Trabzonspor has lost good opportunity to win against Osmanlispor.
Trabzonspor has lost its opportunity while winning with 2- goal difference against Osmanlispor during Super League 29th week game as the game has been ended with 3:3 scoreline as Ankara side has shown great comeback in last 18 minutes of the game.
Trabzonspor was coming out to the game with good advantage of 4 points for 5th spot which could become last spot for Europa League as it has won Kayserispor last week but has lost its advantage as with Osmanlispor draw. It needs to be stated that one of the main reason of such outcome was also factor that Trabzonspor goalkeeper Onur Kivrak was ending game with serious injury and hence their was arleady 3 substitutes during game, he was forced to end game with lots of the pain which could lead for their opponents to find goals. However, Trabzonspor defence needed to be aware of that and provide much more stronger defence against team to who even 1 point could be crucial to stay at the league for next season. Trabzonspor who was showing good performance in recent weeks did end game in pretty poor performance and would once again come up to the crucial Sivasspor game who are only 5 points behind them at the table and needs to show much better and organised performance on that game.
Trabzonspor as been stated did lose strong advantage for Europa League spot but as the team enters
to last 5 games it does have an advantage and needs to get into winning mood for upcoming games including against Sivasspor.
Galatasaray would be aiming to win Akhisarspor at calm manner.
Turkish Cup semi-final 2nd leg games would be starting with Galatasaray and Akhisarspor where Istanbul side would be coming to its own field with an 2:1 advantage and even through this is small advantage, Galatasaray has important factor of not losing at home this season.
Galatasaray as it is known has regained its leadership during game on 15th April where it has Basaksehirspor with 2:0 scoreline and certainly would be coming to the game with high motivation and also an aim to get to the final of the competition and hence aiming for double in this season even through it needs to be stated that those two aims are not as easy as it looks. Galatasaray due of 2-goal cushion and importance of Super League title would be expected to come out to game mainly with substitutes but Galatasaray head coach Fatih Terim would expect from those players to also show same seriousness and focus from main squad players. Of course, with Akhisarspor has an opportunity to show comeback at this tie a big role would be also given to defence especially at 1st minutes of the game. Naturally, Galatasaray would also hope for this game to be played at calm manner, which could be solved with an early goal, so their wont come out too tired prior to Super League game against Alanyaspor.
Galatasaray would be coming out with an advantage of 2:1 scoreline from 1st leg but it cant risk much as its been stated it has difficult game for title this weekend against Alanyaspor.
Akhisarspor would like to get Turkish Cup final more than their opponents but even that might not be enough.
In other hand, Akhisarspor last opportunity to get some European football during next season will be at winning Turkish Cup and with minumum advantage of Galatasaray of 2:1 would be providing an attacking football finding an early goal and seeking for 2nd.
In paper as been mentioned, Galatasaray does come out as favourites and even with 2nd squad would be accepted to control Akhisarspor, however with Akhisarspor aiming to get to next round it would need to play brave and aggresive football and also believing its strengths. It needs to be stated that this task could be tough one as Galatasaray still didnt lose game at its home ground but it needs to believe themselves. Bad news for Akhisarspor without doubt would be news that most goal-scorer of team Yevhen Seleznyov would not be able to play at the game due of injury so role of other players is becoming even more crucial. Meanwhile, its need to be remembered that Galatasaray would also be aiming to find an early goal so it can carry on game in calm manner so its crucial for Akhisarspor to show good and organised defence game.
To some extend due of importance, Akhisarspor would see game in more crucial manner but as usual difference between quality teams could play an important role for the final result of this game.
