Week 2 brings us a match on Aug 12th where Trabzonspor will play host to Hatayspor in a clash of the Super Lig. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy but warm day with daytime temperatures of 24 degrees, which should make for a nice day for football. In their last match, Trabzonspor recorded a 2-0 shutout win against İstanbulspor. Andreas Cornelius struck first for Trabzonspor in the 16th minute, then Stefano Denswil added another in the 86th minute At the end of 90 a dissapointed İstanbulspor couldn’t manage to score, and Trabzonspor took the shutout win. Trabzonspor is looking for direction having earned 12 points in their last 10 matches, while hatayspor has not played yet this season.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out. Last season Trabzonspor won the head to head battle with 1 win and 1 draw.
Hatayspor is glad to have Ayoub El Kaabi in top form. In the last five matches the attacker has scored 4 goals. Both Anthony Nwakaeme and Andreas Cornelius have been the hottest scorers for Trabzonspor in the last five each having scored 2 goals each.
