Match Preview

Bursaspor has made a great start to season. After their home victory against Konya, they have managed to defeat Galatasaray and Sivas on the road. After they host Eskisehir they will face Valencia in Uefa Champions League. Coach Ertugrul Saglam hopes that the players will not have any problem with concentration; because the team is not used to face a busy schedule. During the midweek, Ergic and Stepanov have injured in the training. Both are doubtful. Turgay Bahadir was already injured.

Eskisehir did not start off well to the season as they have only one point in three games. Their offence line really misses Umit Karan who has left. But the arrival of Sadigov made the defence line much better. They will come to play defensively to Bursa. If their speedy players find good counter attacks, they can surprise the hosts.

Bursa was perfect in the first three weeks; but they are in a busy schedule now. They have also two important injuries. Moreover, they have a task against Valencia in the midweek. They can start to think about it from now on. They can win this game; but I do not think they will do it with a big margine. Eskisehir will fight back.

General: Bursa: 2 Draw: 2 Eskisehir: 3
               
Last year: Bursa: 3 Eskisehir: 1

Turkey has made a great start to the qualifications. Belgium absolutely needs to bounce back after they could get nothing in the opening game of their group campaign. I believe that Turkey will win with their in-form attackers.
