Eyüpspor - Göztepe team news and expert analysis
The club from the "Eyüp Stadium" made a strong debut at this level two seasons ago. However, the architect of that success, Arda Turan, then left for Shakhtar. Without him, they only just managed to avoid relegation in the spring, finishing in the "danger zone"—15th place—with 33 points. This season, despite beating Alanyaspor, they have already suffered five defeats, including an 0-8 thrashing in the most recent round, albeit against Fenerbahçe!
The team from Izmir finished sixth in the spring with 55 points, narrowly missing out on European qualification. This season, they have sharply declined. Suffice it to say that they are yet to win a match. At least they managed to draw with both of their most recent opponents, Alanyaspor and Rizespor—both games ended 2-2.
Pulat's side have scored just two goals so far, both in their only victory, while conceding an average of 2.67 goals per game. Their relegation rivals look more competitive: they score 1.83 goals per match and concede 2.5.
