What happened in Turkish football today? 16/10/2021



Besiktas did show very poor performance against Basaksehirspor.

Besiktas did provide pretty poor performance during Super League 9th week game against Basaksehirspor without getting any tempo and control of the game with Basaksehirspor providing much more confident attacking game.

It needs to be noted that Besiktas returning to the Super League following national team hasnt been very effective especially during 1st half as it did failed to show strong creative game with high tempo which been used from this side in recent years. Besiktas especially during 1st half did provide pretty ineffective game which did go into hand for Basaksehirspor, Without doubt conceding goal from Metin Gunok in 1st goal which been due of very simple mistake did also provide motivation to Basaksehirspor. Meanwhile, Basaksehirspor did show strong performance with good organising game due of coaching work and preparation of Emre Belozoglu without doubt.

Besiktas without doubt did provide some worrying image with such performance prior to Sporting Lisbon and Galatasaray games.

Fenerbahce and Trabzonspor would be giving its best performance for leadership.

Without doubt, Super League 9th week game between Trabzonspor and Fenerbahce would become one of the key games not during this week but also 1st half of season as winner of this game would get 1st spot and confidence for upcoming games.

It is difficult to name favourite of the game without doubt as both sides would be coming with good form and being one of best teams during this season with getting top 2 spots and providing strong performance. Coming to injured players, Fenerbahce has been in much better condition for this game as number of the player did recover from their injuries especially Marcel Tisserand while for Trabzonspor not very good did come from Marek Hamsik whose injury is not very serious but he would not be playing due of risk his injury to turn around much more serious for upcoming games. Still, as been noted this would be very excited game with high tension with both sides giving their best to win game.

It is hard to state who would win in the end of the game but both sides would provide high tension for 90 minutes.

Galatasaray expects to be having to be tough game against Konyaspor.

 Galatasaray would be resuming Turkish Super League against good form Konyaspor which could be pretty tough game as Istanbul side seems to be struggling during this season in the league.

As been stated several times by our blog Galatasaray seems to be providing very good performance at Europa League while struggling in the Super League and without doubt it would be having against opponent which would be confident due of recent performance. Stating that it would be expecting for Konyaspor to be providing defensive game due of differences of qualty gap between both sides and hence would be looking for opportunities with counter attacks. Therefore, Galatasaray would need to be showing some creative performance in the attack and also stay focussed to prevent Konyaspor at counter-attacks. Galatasaray did show strong game and comeback against Rizespor and time would show if this would affect positively for this game.

Galatasaray will be coming to game as favourite but it is expected to be tough game for them.
