📰 Team News: Sivasspor

Emrah Bassan (Unknown Injury), Samba Camara (Unknown Injury) and Ahmed Musa (Unknown Injury) are unavailable for Sivasspor boss Servet Çetin.

We are thinking that Yiğidolar could kick off with a 4-3-3 system for this game, utilising Ali Vural Sasal, Murat Paluli, Caner Osmanpasa, Aaron Appindangoye, Ugur Ciftci, Charis Charisis, Yunus Emre Konak, Samuel Saiz Alonso, Clinton NJie, Rey Manaj and Gerson Rodrigues.

📰 Team News: MKE Ankaragücü

In an otherwise available squad, there is just the sole fitness worry for the MKE Ankaragücü boss Tolunay Kafkas to be concerned about. Ali Sowe (Hand fracture) won’t be playing here. Yasir Karabay cannot play in this game through suspension.

It’s our belief that Kupa beyi might begin the game with a 4-3-3 lineup, choosing Rafal Gikiewicz, Stelios Kitsiou, Uros Radakovic, Mert Cetin, Nihad Mujakić, Andrej Djokanovic, Tolga Cigerci, Efkan Bekiroglu, Olimpiu Morutan, Riad Bajic and G. Mendes Rodrigues.

🧠 Prediction

We believe that MKE Ankaragücü may well find it hard to find the net against this Sivasspor side who we think might well manage to get a goal of their own in a winning performance.

We’re going for a very even match with a 1-0 winning margin for Sivasspor when the full-time whistle blows.
