Due to a completely healthy group available to choose from, the Gaziantep manager Erol Bulut has zero fitness concerns to speak of ahead of this match.

There’s a good chance that Gaziantep appear most likely to make use of a 4-1-4-1 system with a starting lineup of Günay Güvenc, Stelios Kitsiou, Alin Tosca, Papy Djilobodji, Matej Hanousek, Alexander Merkel, Mustafa Eskihellac, Luka Stankovski, Alexandru Maxim, Valmir Veliu and João Figueiredo.

For this match, we think that Gaziantep are dangerous enough to get a goal against this Sivasspor lineup, but that is unlikely to be as many as they will have scored against them.
