Galatasaray continues showing top game at Europa League.
Galatasaray continues to be most successful club during this season in Europe group stage as it got crucial win against Lokomotiv Moscow with providing patient game and continues its leadership in group.
Galatasaray as been noted several times at our blog does provide two different performances at domestic and European front, and has continued to showing strong defensive game and didnt allow Lokomotiv Moscow to get shot on the target for 90 minutes despite of side creating number of opportunities. As Terim, key of the game has been to provide patient defensive game as 0:0 would be not very bad result but it became later that some attackers been introduced for last 20 minutes of Kenan Akturkoglu and Morutan who did play key role of this win with Morutan providing great assist while Akturkoglu did score very classy goal on his birthday. Hence, Galatasaray on midway is being on top at such tough group with 3 point advantage and could realistically focus to top spot which would make their wouldnt play 1 knockout stage.
Galatasaray also did get important motivation for Besiktas game to be played on 25th October.
Fenerbahce needs to improve at Europe.
Fenerbahce on other part with getting 1 point against weakest link of the group Antwerp has ended 3rd week with 2 points and does put into difficulty into fighting for knockout stages, focussing now to Conference League.
With all respect to Belgian side which despite losses did show some good performance in group, Fenerbahce were expected to get confident win but even through it did control ball and created some opportunities especially with Valencia, it did struggle to get full control of the game and not providing strong pressure in the attack. One of the main reason has been for only Valencia to be playing only player being close to goal and by him being very good player without doubt, did provide struggle both tactically and physically against Antwerp. There are without doubt some worrying signs for them at least in the European front. It does sound like Pereira from his statements doesnt have expectations, but still team could show stronger game.
Therefore, Fenerbahce does need to show some improvements with how it performs at Europe so far.
Trabzonspor will come out to Goztepe with high confidence.
Without doubt with winning Fenerbahce in whatever circumstances, being on the top of the league would mean it would be coming out to Goztepe with high confidence and motivation.
Trabzonspor for sure did provide strong message of how it being title contender with previous game but now it need also to make that message with providing stronger game against Goztepe and this would be without doubt most motivational boost. Goztepe which does show some poor performance so far during this season would be expected to have some tough 90 minutes but it would be needed to focus into defence with Trabzonspor being strongest area while Trabzonspor needs to show creative at front but this being not very serious worry as it tend to do so far in the season.
Trabzonspor comes with top motivation against Goztepe and this could be issue for opponent.
