Trabzonspor – Bursaspor
Trabzonspor meats Bursaspor in a game from the last 34th round of the Turkish Super Lig.
The match is more important for Bursaspor than it is for Trabzonspor, as they are still fighting for survival in Turkey’s football elite. Right now Bursaspor are just one position above the relegation zone, having two points more than the 16th Rizespor. In same time RIzespor is playing against Alanyaspor at home, so they will be hoping that Trabzonspor will make them a huge favor by beating Bursaspor.
As for Trabzonspor, they already know that they are going to end the campaign at 6th place in the final standings. They were in a good position to chase even a European qualification in the last month of the league, but they were unable to record even one win in their last five matches. They made draws in four of them and lost against Kayserispor at home. This weak form in the most decisive time of the season basically killed Trabzonspor’s chances of chasing a place in the Europa League for next season.
Bursaspor, on the other hand, is going through a tough battle for survival. Former champions and participants in the Champions League, right now they are going through difficult times. They have lost 18 of their 33 games in the Super Lig so far, including all of their last five. It’s really bad for them that they are showing such a poor form in the most important time of the season. Will it be fatal for them at the end? We shall wait and see! But it’s clear that if they lose their final game as well, they could relegate if in the same time Rizespor beat Alanyaspor at home.
This game does not matter for Trabzonspor at all, but for Bursaspor is really decisive. Will it matter for the final result? We shall wait and see.
