🗞️ Team News: Çaykur Rizespor
It’s our opinion that Atmacalar could use the 4-2-3-1 system in the match, utilising Ivo Grbic, Muhammet Taha Şahin, Attila Mocsi, Khusniddin Alikulov, C. Højer Nielsen, Mithat Pala, Berkay Özcan, Vaclav Jurecka, Ibrahim Olawoyin, B. David Akintola and Ali Sowe.
ℹ️ Team News: Gaziantep
We are inclined to think that Gaziantep seem likely to elect for a 3-4-1-2 formation using Mustafa Burak Bozan, Semih Guler, Ertugrul Ersoy, Anel Husic, Deian Sorescu, Kacper Kozlowski, Papa Alioune Ndiaye, David Okereke, Alexandru Maxim, Emmanuel Boateng and Halil Dervisoglu.
🧠 Prediction
We envisage that Gaziantep have the ability to breach the defence of this Çaykur Rizespor team, although that might not quite be as many as they will have scored against them.
Our selection here is for a tight encounter finishing with a 2-1 win for Çaykur Rizespor after the 90. There shouldn’t be much in it, either way.
