ℹ️ Team News: Istanbulspor

Availability isn’t a big problem, with just one fitness concern for the Istanbulspor gaffer Osman Korkmaz to be concerned about due to a largely intact set of players. Baran Alp Vardar (Cancer) is out of contention.

💡 Prediction

We’re inclined to think that Boluspor will have to perform well to be putting a goal past this Istanbulspor team who we reckon will do enough to score at the other end and edge ahead.

That’s why our selection here is for a very even match with a 1-0 advantage for Istanbulspor at the end of this game.

Should be a close one.
