Çaykur Rizespor

WLWDDL ⚖

Çaykur Rizespor will be looking for an improved result here following the 6-0 Super Lig loss in their previous game against Beşiktaş.

Cyle Larin (19', 31', 79', 83'), Oğuzhan Özyakup (56') and Ajdin Hasić (89') scored for Beşiktaş.

It has been a rare occasion in recent games that Çaykur Rizespor have kept a clean sheet. The reality is that Atmacalar have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 6 of their previous 6 games, shipping 13 goals on the way. Let’s find out whether or not that trend can be sustained in this game.

Their prior results show that Çaykur Rizespor:

• have not registered a win against Denizlispor in their previous 3 matches in the league.
• have not been beaten in their last 3 home league matches.

Denizlispor

LWWLDL

After a losing effort in their last game against Kayserispor in Super Lig competition, Denizlispor will be hoping to turn things around here.

Pedro Henrique (21') was the scorer for Kayserispor.

The numbers tell their own story, and Denizlispor have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 matches, seeing opposing sides hit 9 goals overall. Defensively, Horozlar certainly have room for improvement.

Looking at the pre-match facts, Denizlispor:

• have not emerged victorious against Çaykur Rizespor when they have played them away from home in the previous 4 league games. They'll be keen to stop this run.
• have not been beaten in their last 2 away league matches.
