The week 14, in the Turkish TurkCell Super League will open on Friday As Fenerbahce visits Denizlispor.
The team who had a bad start in the league came behind and moved up in the standings very well!..............
FIRST, OLD BUSINESS FROM LAST WEEK!.............
I am talking about Fenerbahce,after beating Mustafa Denizli's Besiktas last week moved in to the top five..............
It was very crucial match for Fenerbahce.......
Just think, a loss against Besiktas would it put them out of the chase..
Because a loss would leave them with 20 points in the standings 8 points behind the top team!..
Fenerbahce knew they had the win this match....
That's why they had more desire to win the match!..............
On the other hand, Besiktas, after Trabzon leaving two points in Kayseri, had a chance the capture the top spot with 28 points and leave Fenerbahce at 20 points!...
This is why , Mustafa Denizli's Besiktas, had to win this match!...
Earlier in the week, Denizli was upset with the people that was criticizing him, for giving the match away!........
Why?!.............
Can't we talk about the mistakes!............
I wonder if he knew the important of last weeks match against Fenerbahce...
If he knew, He would not wait until 20 minutes left in the match to make a substitution............
Well, I just had to get this out of my chest again!.....
FRIDAY...................
Getting back to the Friday's match.....
Fenerbahce leads the form table in the league in the last six weeks...
they have won their last three home matches and in the last three away matches they won one and draw two matches.
On the other hand unpredictable Denizlispor who has a very young roster scores a lot goals but also lets in a lot of goals too!...
They have a big problem on defense...............
They are though at home though!...
In the last three home matches they won two and draw one....
If they get one point against Fenerbahce , that would spoil Fenerbahce's day!...
SATURDAY.........
There are four matches on Saturday....
Three of them will be on early in the day............(07:00 ET)
Antalyaspor against Eskisehirspor, Gaziantepspor will host Kayserispor and two teams from Ankara,Hacettepe, Genclerbirligi will play for brother ship!...
In the late and night match Besiktas the team who gave the match to Fenerbahce last week will try to mend the wounds by winning the match at home against Ankaraspor.
That won't be easy though............
Ankaraspor who has 23 points two points behind of Besiktas...
So, They could well spoil Besiktas's day, in Istanbul!............
It will be hard fought match ,in my opinion..............
Besiktas, has to win this match, other wise , Mustafa Denizli could be in the hot seat!............
SUPER SUNDAY!.............
Well, we could call it Super Sunday...........
All the most important matches will take place on Sunday.
Leagues top team Trabzonspor will play in the early day match at home against the last team in the standing, Kocaelispor!..........
But, wait, Kocaelispor will not be easy team to beat....
They won their second match of the year beating Konyaspor with three goals at home...
They looked like a team last week!.............
Also on Sunday, early day match, in Istanbul, the team who has no fan base will play against top contender Sivaspor ........
This time there will be fans in the big old Ataturk Olympic Stadium but , they will cheer for Sivaspor...........
Because, there is a big Sivaspor fans who are living in Istanbul.........
Like Besiktas, Sivasspor has 25 points going in to week 14.
Sivaspor has to win this match if they want to make a run for the top spot...
Elsewhere on Sunday in the early match, Konyaspor will host Bursaspor at home....
Konyaspor who has 15 points , has to beat Bursaspor if they don't want to go to danger zone of the league...........
Last match of the week 14, will take a place in Ankara , Ankaragucu against Galatasaray...........
By the time this match rolls on, we should know who is on top and who on the bottom!..
Galatasaray who is with 24 points, will probably be the lucky team of the week!...
A negative news and scores from the top contender will make Galatasaray smile to the bank!...........
They would be more motivated for this match in Ankara............
A win would bring them to 27 points ...............
But, one small thing...........
When ever Galatasaray plays in European competition , they don't do good in the Turkcell Super League..........
On the other hand, Ankaragucu has not win a match in last three home matches!....
So, two weeks to go to brake in the Turkcell Super League, the heat is on.......
The heat is on on top and the bottom too.........
There are six teams who are competing for the top spot at this moment.........
But, what ever week 14 will bring we don't know yet!..........
Wr know one thing though..............
Trabzonspor is the top team with 28 points and they are playing at home.........
And Trabzonspor has't loss any matc at home yet....but they draw three!....
A draw will cost them the top spot,,,,,,,,,,,,
If Besiktas or Sivaspor wins one of them will capture the top spot from Trabzonspor in the case of a draw!...................
So, week 14, in the Turkcell Super League will be very crucial........
The winners will go on .......losers will cry!............
Have Great weekend...............
