Gençlerbirliği match preview

By: j | September 20th, 2008

With the horrors of the Porto loss still in their memory, Fenerbahçe welcomes Gençlerbirliği to Şükrü Saracoğlu as is in desperate need for points in this young Süper Lig season.

Luis Aragonés
is facing a tough challenge as the Yellow Canaries go into this match without Volkan Demirel, who is under suspension as well as Semih Şentürk, Edu Dracena, Josico, Tümer Metin, Gökçek Vederson and Deivid de Souza to injuries.

The Ankara has had mixed results this campaign and after a draw and loss in the first two weeks, pulled through with a comfortable 3-1 victory over EskiÅŸehirspor. Their manager, Mesut Bakkal, must surely be chomping at the bit for this match as the situation for them to gain rare points in Istanbul is near-perfect. He’ll take a aggressive stance and will have sharpshooter Mustafa Pektemek heading straight at the suspect Fenerbahçe back four. If not said more simply, I expect the visitors to be very motivated and to take advantage of the situation.

The Yellow Canaries cannot rest on their back heels and need crowd support to build them on and urge them to attack. Emre Belözoğlu, Kâzım Kâzım (Colin Kazım-Richards ), Alex and Daniel Güiza must push forward, with confidence and sever the visitors hopes with an aggressive approach.

I will report on the match as it concludes.
