Sivasspor won’t want a repeat of their last result here following the 4-1 Super Lig loss in their previous game against Adana Demirspor.

Bülent Uygun's Sivasspor have found the net 8 times in their past six outings. The tally of goals that have been scored against them in those same games amounts to 8.

In 5 of the previous 6 clashes involving Fatih Karagümrük, a comparatively low number of goals have gone in between them and opposing teams. The overall average goals scored per game during that spell is a paltry 2.5, with the average goals for Karagümrük equalling 1. Let’s see whether or not that trend will be continued on into this next match.

Coming into this fixture, Fatih Karagümrük haven’t won away from home in the past 14 matches in the league. They must be getting so desperate.

🗞️ Team News: Sivasspor

It’s a low absenteeism rate, with just a single fitness concern for the Sivasspor boss Bülent Uygun to contend with due to a largely intact squad. Hakan Arslan (Tendon rupture) misses out.

We are thinking that Yiğidolar will probably make use of the 4-2-3-1 system for this one and select Ali Vural Sasal, Ugur Ciftci, Aaron Appindangoye, Caner Osmanpasa, Murat Paluli, Charis Charisis, Ibrahim Akdag, Bengali-Fode Koita, Mijo Caktas, Azizbek Turgunboev and Queensy Menig.

📰 Team News: Fatih Karagümrük

In an otherwise healthy group of players, there’s only the lone fitness problem for the Fatih Karagümrük boss Tolunay Kafkas to be concerned about. Markao (unknown injury) misses out for this game. Ineligible players who cannot play in this game through suspension are Federico Ceccherini, Levent Mercan and Dimitrios Kourbelis.

There’s a good chance that Fatih Karagümrük might begin the game with a 4-1-4-1 lineup, giving starts to Salvatore Sirigu, Nazim Sangaré, Davide Biraschi, Salih Dursun, Frederic Veseli, Marcus Rohden, Can Keles, Valentin Eysseric, Sofiane Feghouli, Güven Yalcin and Kevin Lasagna.

⚡ Prediction

When taking all factors into account, Fatih Karagümrük and Sivasspor may both struggle to make a breakthrough here.

A scoreless draw looks like a real possibility, but we’ll see what happens. We therefore think that it’s going to be a very close game with a 0-0 draw at full-time.
