Eyüpspor hosts Rizespor on 12 September 2026 at 17:00 in the Süper Lig. Eyüpspor has won just one of four league matches this season, losing 3-0 to Gaziantep, 1-0 to Beşiktaş, and 3-0 to Çorum. The club lost key midfielder Taşkın İltere to injury, a blow that has disrupted their transition from defence to attack. Rizespor arrives unbeaten away from home, winning both road matches 2-1 against Gaziantep and 1-0 against Konyaspor. At their own stadium, Rizespor has struggled, losing 1-0 to Alanyaspor and 2-0 to Samsunspor. The visitors thrive on space for quick counterattacks but face a home side that will sit deep and compact.
Form and H2H
Eyüpspor's last ten matches show five wins, two draws, and three losses, averaging 1.47 goals for and 1.01 against. Rizespor's away form over the same span reads five wins, two draws, and three losses, with 1.20 goals for and 0.80 against. The head-to-head record heavily favours Rizespor. Since March 2023, Rizespor has won four of the last six meetings: 1-0 in March 2023, 2-1 in November 2024, 1-0 in April 2025, and 3-0 in December 2025. Eyüpspor's sole recent victory came 4-0 in May 2026, but that result masks a clear pattern of Rizespor dominance in this fixture.
Best bet
Rizespor win. Eyüpspor have conceded six goals in four matches and blanked in three of them. Rizespor have scored in both away games this season and punish defensive lapses through the centre of the pitch. The visitors' comfort on the road, combined with Eyüpspor's injury crisis and poor form, makes Rizespor the logical choice. No partner odds are available at this time.
Odds to watch
Both teams struggle to create clear-cut chances. Eyüpspor have failed to score in three of four league outings. Rizespor have gone over 1.5 goals in just one of four matches. Under 2.5 is the secondary angle, reflecting the difficulty both sides face in the final third. No partner odds are available at this time.
