All eyes are on the strikers in the Fenerbahçe and Beşiktaş derby

All eyes will be on the forwards of Fenerbahçe and Beşiktaş, who will meet on Saturday, September 5, in the 4th week of the Trendyol Super League.

Both teams, which started the league with the motto of championship, added strikers to their squads at the beginning of the season in order to achieve their goals.

In order to strengthen their forward line, the yellow-dark blue team first transferred their former striker Vedat Muriqi, and then gave Romelu Lukaku, one of the strikers of European football, the yellow-dark blue jersey.

Beşiktaş, on the other hand, transferred Serbian football player Dusan Vlahovic at the beginning of this season, after Hyeon-gyu Oh, who joined the black-white team at the half-time of last season.

GOATRS OF BOTH TEAMS ARE WORKING

Both teams, which opened the season with qualifying matches in Europe, left 9 competitions behind with the start of the leagues.

While Fenerbahçe had 6 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat in this process, Beşiktaş left the field with 7 wins and 2 defeats.

Both teams managed to clear the opponent's net 15 times in this 9-game period. While Fenerbahçe scored 8 of the 15 goals it scored in the UEFA Champions League qualifying matches, it also enjoyed scoring goals in the league 7 times.

Beşiktaş, on the other hand, managed to clear the net of its opponents 8 times in the UEFA Europa League qualifying rounds and scored a total of 7 goals in the league.

Parted ways with the top scorer in FENERBAHÇE

Fenerbahçe parted ways with Anderson Talisca, who was the team's leading goal scorer this season.

Talisca, who managed to score 5 of the 15 goals scored by the yellow-dark blue team, scored against Gençlerbirliği in the only match he played in the league, and scored 4 goals in 4 matches played against Gornik Zabrze and Sturm Graz in Europe.

EYES WILL BE ON GREENWOOD AND VEDAT

After Talisca's departure, Fenerbahçe's eyes will turn to Vedat Muriqi and Mason Greenwood, who joined the squad this season.

The two players, who supported Fenerbahçe's 7 goals, will try to give their fans goal joy in the derby.

Greenwood, who only managed to get Konyaspor's net twice in the 3 matches he played in the league, scored 4 goals in the European qualifying matches, scoring one goal each in the Sturm Graz and Olympic Lyon matches.

Vedat Muriqi, on the other hand, managed to score a goal in the last 2 matches played in the league, and once scored in the opponent's net in the rematch against Olympic Lyon.

DUSAN VLAHOVIC STARTED WITH A HAT-TRICK

Serbian football player Dusan Vlahovic, whom Beşiktaş added to its squad this season, completed the match in which he scored his first goal with a hat-trick.

The 26-year-old player, who played in a total of 4 matches, 2 league and 2 European, with the black and white jersey, had a critical share in his team's victory by scoring 3 goals in the league match against Arca Çorum FK.

Besides Vlahovic, Orkun Kökçü and Vaclav Cerny stand out as Beşiktaş's strikers. Both football players were influential figures in Beşiktaş's 15-goal performance as the top scorers of the black-and-white team, together with Vlahovic, with 3 goals each.

HIDDEN GOATTER CERNY

Vaclav Cerny, whose performance was discussed in Beşiktaş, confused people with the critical goals he scored.

The Czech football player played a leading role in his team's 1-0 victory with the goals he scored in the matches against Hradec Kralove and Eyüpspor. Cerny also managed to clear the opponent's net in the Çorum FK match.

PENALTY AT ORKUN

Beşiktaş's captain Orkun Kökçü scored 2 of the 3 goals he scored from penalties.

Orkun Kökçü, who managed to score 2 goals, one of which was a penalty, in the two matches played against Midtjylland in the UEFA Europa League qualifiers, did not miss the rematch with Kauno Zalgiris in Istanbul. The national football player had a share in his team's success with the goal he scored from the penalty.
