Team News: Kayserispor
Lionel Carole (Muscle injury), Majid Hosseini (Ankle injury), Anthony Uzodimma (Cartilage damage), Ali Karimi (Lumbar vertebra problems) and Julian Jeanvier (Meniscus tear) will not be able to play for Kayserispor manager Burak Yılmaz.
In our view, Anadolu Yıldızı will possibly opt for a 4-1-4-1 system for this one featuring Bilal Bayazit, Gökhan Sazdagi, Dimitris Kolovetsios, Arif Kocaman, Hasan Ali Kaldirim, Mehdi Bourabia, Aylton Boa Morte, Otabek Shukurov, Miguel Cardoso, Ramazan Civelek and Stephane Bahoken.

Team News: Trabzonspor
Trabzonspor manager Abdullah Avcı has a number of players out of action. Mehmet Aydın (Fitness), Mahmoud Trezeguet (Muscle injury) and Hüseyin Türkmen (Achilles tendon rupture) are those who can’t be considered.
We reckon that Karadeniz Fırtınası seem likely to play in a 4-2-3-1 system with a starting lineup of Ugurcan Cakir, Thomas Meunier, Batista Mendy, Stefano Denswil, Evren Eren Elmali, B. Ayberk Özdemir, Umut Günes, Edin Visca, Enis Bardhi, Nicolas Pepe and Paul Onuachu.

Prediction
In our view, Kayserispor might well have a job on their hands to hit the back of the net against this Trabzonspor outfit who we reckon should win and very possibly keep a clean sheet.
Our tip is therefore for a very even contest with a 0-1 advantage for Trabzonspor after 90 minutes.
There should be little in it.
