What happened in Turkish football today? 01/11/2023



Fenerbahce are having defensive issues due of injuries.

Fenerbahce player Fred will not be able to play for 2-3 weeks while Rodrigo Becao injury is recovery is reported to be taking for at least 1 month which does provide even more issues at defensive area of the field.

It needs to be stated that Fenerbahce are possibly reaching into most critical condition of the season as it would be playing against Trabzonspor during this week, play midweek against Ludogorets which has provided biggest issue to Fenerbahce so far at Conference League and possibly 3rd strongest team in the leageu Adana Demirspor next week. Among having some more absences due of injury in this period, it does have some problems at defense as its key defenders except Samet Akaydin are injured. In fact, Akaydin has been seen as last defender on the squad but with good performance during national team duty he does provide lots of promises for this upcoming games. Without doubt, Akaydin would be focussing to use this chance as an opportunity to show his capacity to technical staff which could turn out as positive matter for sure for whole team.

Fenerbahce hence does have worrying image for defensive side prior to 3 crucial game but Akaydin is capable to provide good performance despite being seen as outsider in normal conditions.

Besiktas player Rachid Ghezzal keeps getting injured when he back from recovery of previous one.

Besiktas player Rachid Ghezzal has once again became injured this time during Super League game against Gaziantep as he became injured for 20 minutes and does seem to be getting injured whenever he returns from injury.

During last 2 seasons, Rachid Ghezzal has hardly recieving playing time as he either gets injured and when he does eventually return he gets injured during that game which does raise some questions of general condition of Ghezzal and possibly how he is being recovered from team. Rachid Ghezzal without doubt is being key player to the team as when he does play he does affect positively and in fact raises performance of the team but sadly for team and him he doesnt get much of that time in recent seasons.

It does look like Besiktas would need to go through of reasons why he is being so frequently injured and possibly he does come on field too early which leads him to get injured once again.

Its unclear if Trezeguet and Bakasetas will play against Fenerbahce

Trabzonspor players Trezeguet and Bakasetas has resumed training session after recovering from injury but it is still unclear if they would be ready for Fenerbahce game on 4th November.

It is reported that club is treating both players condition with precaution as both players only attended 30 minutes of the training session as head coach Abdullah Avci did state to prior to training session talk with press that team would be working to make they recovery fully until game and did say that chances are high but didnt make it for certain. With players attending training session daily, it does look technical staff would make decision with how players performed physically.

Both players does strentgh an attacking game on field and hence their absence would have negative impact with team performance against Fenerbahce for sure.
