Rizespor vs Trabzonspor Prediction & Betting Tips (25 January)

Just promoted after a season spent at the lower level, Rizespor has absolutely no fear in fighting in the race for Europe and ends up holding a marvelous 5th place at the start of this 22nd day. With 4 points behind 4th Besiktas, the locals still experienced a setback last weekend by conceding 3 points on the pitch of Alanyaspor 2-1 and remain on two defeats in the last three days if we count the one against Besiktas precisely at home 0-4. Note as a bonus that they were eliminated from the Turkish Cup at the 1/16th final stage by Ankaragucu 3-1.Turkey champion two years ago, Trabzonspor never managed to launch their following campaign by only finishing 6th, outside the qualifying places for Europe.

However, last weekend, for the reception of the title holder, Galatasaray, the residents of Trabzon did not have a say in conceding a suitcase manita sauce 1-5. A defeat which shattered their beautiful series of six days without defeat in the championship, including 4 victories. Unlike Rizespor, Trabzonspor won their 1/16 final of the Turkish Cup by getting rid of Manina FK 3-1 and will cross swords with Genclerbirligi D2 in the round of 16.

Selected with Uzbekistan for the Asian Cup, Alikulov will obviously be out of this match while boys like Azubuike (2 assists this season) and Tecimer (injured for ages) will be out due to injury. Author of 7 goals this season in the league, Varesanovic will probably be in the mix like Adolfo Gaich (6 pawns in the elite) or Keser (4 goals, 3 caviars). Not initially sent to Nigeria, Paul Onuachu (9 goals, 3 assists in the league) finally had to go to Ivory Coast to make up for the numerous failures of the Nigerian attack. He is not the only one to have left for the CAN since the Egyptian, Trezeguet (4 pawns, 2 assists in the elite) also left to play it like Nicolas Pepe (ex-Lille) who left to defend the elephants.

Note that the talented Orsic (OUT for weeks) and Denswill (important) will probably be unavailable for this trip (injured). Greek international Bakasetas (4 goals, 2 caviars) was transferred to Panathinaikos this winter. Visca (3 pawns, 5 cakes) and Destan (3 goals, 2 assists) will be there.
