Team News: Adanaspor
The Adanaspor manager Coşkun Demirbakan will be thankful to have no fitness worries to speak of coming into this match with a completely injury-free group available for selection. Eric Ayuk will not be able to play in this game through being suspended.
It’s our opinion that Toros Kaplanları should go for a 4-2-3-1 system this time, beginning the first half with Ertugrul Taskiran, Florent Hadergjonaj, Furkan Bayir, Fidan Aliti, Jure Balkovec, Richard Coelho, Nicolas Janvier, Oguz Aydin, Efecan Karaca, Yusuf Özdemir and Ahmed Hassan.

Team News: Manisa FK
In an otherwise available group, there is only the one fitness problem for the Manisa FK gaffer to contend with. Ayberk Karapo (Cruciate ligament injury) won’t be in action. Players who are serving a ban and are therefore ineligible to play are Kaan Kanak and Eduart Rroca.
We reckon that Manisa FK seem likely to play in a 5-4-1 lineup by sending out Alp Arda, David Sambissa, Mehmet Yesil, Simon Deli, Demeaco Duhaney, Ali Yasar, Mendy Mamadou, Özcan Sahan, Vefa Temel, J. Kenio Santos and Emir Kaan Gültekin.
💭
Prediction
We believe that Adanaspor could well find it tough to find the net against this Manisa FK side who we think will win and very possibly keep a clean sheet.
We therefore think that it’s going to be a hard-fought 0-1 winning margin for Manisa FK at the conclusion of the game.
There should be little in it.
