Week 9 brings us a match on Oct 8th, where Beşiktaş will travel to Giresun to battle Giresunspor in a Super Lig match. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 16 degrees, which is great football weather. In their last match, Giresunspor recorded a 1-1 draw against Alanyaspor. Görkem Sağlam scored the first goal for Giresunspor in the 65th minute on a penalty kick, then in the 81st minute, Leroy Fer sent in a beautiful pass which was converted by Jure Balkovec squeezing out at least the one point for Alanyaspor. Giresunspor is looking for direction having 2 win and 3 losses in their last 10 matches, while beşiktaş sits at 6th place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 0-0 scoreless draw against Fenerbahçe. Neither Beşiktaş nor Fenerbahçe could manage to put one past the goalie. They had 10 and 8 shots on net respectively, but no one could score, and the match ended in a 0 – 0 draw,. Beşiktaş should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 17 points in their last 10 matches.
This will be the first match for these two teams against eachother this season. Last season Giresunspor won the head to head battle with 1 win and 1 draw.
Jackson Muleka has been the most prolific scorer on Beşiktaş in his last five matches with 3 goals. Riad Bajić and Görkem Sağlam are the top scorers for Giresunspor in the last 5 matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
