🗞️ Team News: Çaykur Rizespor

The Çaykur Rizespor boss İlhan Palut doesn’t have any fitness worries whatsoever coming into this clash owing to a fully healthy squad to pick from.

We are thinking that Atmacalar will possibly employ a 4-2-3-1 formation for this one with Gokhan Akkan, Taha Sahin, Attila Mocsi, Emir Han Topcu, Halil Pehlivan, Mithat Pala, Ibrahim Olawoyin, Gustavo Sauer, Dal Varesanovic, Altin Zeqiri and Adolfo Gaich.

📋 Team News: Sivasspor

Sivasspor boss Servet Çetin has to choose a team with limited availability. Samba Camara (Unknown Injury) and Gerson Rodrigues (Unknown Injury) are not ready for selection. Clinton N'Jie is ineligible for this match because of suspension.

It’s our belief that Yiğidolar might begin the game with a 4-1-4-1 lineup, settling for Ali Sasal Vural, Burak Kapacak, Aaron Appindangoye, Caner Osmanpasa, Ugur Ciftci, Yunus Emre Konak, Emrah Bassan, Charilaos Charisis, Samu Saiz, Modou Barrow and Rey Manaj.

💭 Prediction

We believe that Sivasspor will likely be able to score against this Çaykur Rizespor side, but that is unlikely to be as many as the goals that they could concede.

We’re going for a narrow 2-1 winning score for Çaykur Rizespor by the conclusion of the game. Hopefully this is a good one.
