After two defeats in recent weeks, Eyüpspor responded in emphatic fashion against Kayserispor. Despite the visitors' six shots, the home side kept a clean sheet and made the most of their limited chances in attack to secure a 3-0 victory.
Taylan Özdemir carried the scoring burden for Eyüpspor. The forward added two goals to strengthen his team's lead, while defender Kerim Bilik also found the net. Eyüpspor produced five shots but were more clinical than Kayserispor, who managed six.
Berke Arda was one of the standout performers. The midfielder completed 22 passes and made three interceptions, earning a 9.3 rating—the highest individual score for Eyüpspor. Kerim Bilik also contributed defensively with two tackles in addition to his goal.
Kayserispor's efforts to get on the scoresheet were thwarted by Şeref Topaloğlu. The Eyüpspor goalkeeper made six saves to deny the visitors any route back into the match and played a key role in the clean sheet. Caner Çıkrık and Baran Deniz Güler also contributed to the home side's attacking play with an assist apiece.
The result took Eyüpspor to 43 points, while Kayserispor remained on 25. Eyüpspor will take plenty of confidence from a three-goal victory and a clean sheet.
