Caykur Rizespor (home)
- Rizespor have won 1 and lost 2 of their last 3 home games in the Super Lig.
- The Yellow-Red’s recent form has been mixed with 1 win, 2 draws and 2 losses in their last 5, while they have struggled to be consistent on their own patch with just 2 wins, 1 draw and 5 defeats from their 8 Super Lig home games this term.
Eyupspor (away)
- Eyupspor have won 2, drawn 2 and lost 1 of their last 5 games in all competitions.
- This improvement in away form will play a crucial role in our Caykur Rizespor vs Eyupspor betting tips for the upcoming clash, considering Eyupspor’s 2-1 win away to Gazisehir Gaziantep FK and a 6-1 Cup victory over Cankaya FK, they should have enough belief to get a strike on Saturday.
Head-to-Head
That advantage could be key in the end though as Rizespor are the dominant force in this fixture, having beaten Eyupspor the last two times they have faced off in the Super Lig.
Key Players
- Emre Akbaba is the Eagles’ top scorer with 2 Super Lig goals in 13 appearances, but the midfielder also adds the creative spark that has driven his side’s improved attacking play of late.
- Jesurun Rak-Sakyi is Rizespor’s chief scoring threat with 4 Super Lig goals in 9 for the season, but they will also look to their wide men and late runners from the midfield to do damage on the break.
Betting Insights
- Our Caykur Rizespor vs Eyupspor betting tips are influenced by the odds, as Caykur Rizespor are the marginal favorites to win Saturday’s Super Lig encounter against Eyupspor at 2.05, but the visitors are available at the same odds as the draw, at 3.68, so the hosts don’t appear to have a lot going for them despite their home advantage.
- A goal at either end looks likely in this game as BTTS 1.67 is available.
- Rizespor have only scored 6 goals in their 8 home league games this season and they lack potency in the final third.
Prediction
- An open, lively affair is likely and the Caykur Rizespor vs Eyupspor prediction leans towards a closely-fought match.
- The Yellow-Red look a little unconvincing at home, so the draw is taken as a safety net in case the match is close and scrappy.
