The guest team is in the 11th place with 18 points, 4 wins, 6 draws and losses.
47th appointment in the league
The two teams have faced each other 46 times so far. Of the remaining 46 matches, Beşiktaş won 29 and the Black Sea representative won 8. In 9 matches, the parties settled for 1 point.
Rize team responded to the 93 goals scored by the black-white team with 46 goals.
The last 2 matches were drawn
Coach Sergen Yalçın’s team has been longing for victory in the Super League for 2 weeks. Beşiktaş, which drew 2-2 with Gaziantep FK in the 15th week, settled for 1 point with a 3-3 away draw with Trabzonspor last week.
The black-white team wants to win the Rizespor match, end their 3-point drought, and enter the halftime in high spirits.
Couldn’t win the last 4 matches in Dolmabahçe
Beşiktaş is having difficulty winning home matches this season. Kartal, who won the first 3 matches at home at the beginning of the season, could not win the next 4 matches at Dolmabahçe. While the black-whites were defeated by Gençlerbirliği and Fenerbahçe in this process, they also drew with Samsunspor and Gaziantep FK. If Black Kartal cannot win in the Rizespor match, they will repeat the series of 5 consecutive home wins in the 1969-1970 season.
Black-whites are superior at home against their opponent
Beşiktaş has the upper hand in the matches played in Istanbul between the black-white team and the Rize team. Black Eagle won 15 of the matches it hosted its opponent and lost 3 of them. In 5 matches, the parties settled for 1 point.
While Beşiktaş shook the net 50 times, Rizespor enjoyed a goal 20 times.
Rafa Silva’s situation depends on Sergen Yalçın
It will be determined today whether Rafa Silva, who has been working with the team for a while, will be in the squad for the Rizespor match. Rafa, who was not included in the squad in the last 5 matches, can take part in the large squad for the Çaykur Rizespor match if Coach Sergen Yalçın deems it suitable.
5 missing in Beşiktaş
The black-whites have 5 missing players before the Rizespor match. Cengiz Ünder and Jota Silva, who are injured, and Mustafa Erhan Hekimoğlu, whose treatment continues, will not be able to play tomorrow.
