📋 Team News: Trabzonspor

Nearly everyone is up for selection, with just a single fitness concern for the Trabzonspor manager Abdullah Avcı to be concerned about thanks to an almost full-strength set of players. Hüseyin Türkmen (Achilles tendon rupture) is out of contention. Suspended players who are serving a ban for this game are Eren Elmalı and Hüseyin Türkmen.

It’s our opinion that Karadeniz Fırtınası will possibly kick off with a 4-1-4-1 formation for this one with Ugurcan Cakir, Thomas Meunier, Batista Mendy, Stefano Denswil, Rayyan Baniya, B. Ayberk Özdemir, Edin Visca, Nicolas Pepe, Enis Bardhi, Taxiarchis Fountas and Enis Destan.

ℹ️ Team News: Gaziantep

Gaziantep boss Selçuk İnan has multiple availability issues to deal with. Ulaş Zengin (Achilles tendon rupture), Onur Başyiğit (unknown injury) and Bryan Acosta (unknown injury) can’t be considered.

It’s our belief that Gaziantep might utilise a 4-1-4-1 formation using F. Constantin Nita, Ertugrul Ersoy, Papy Djilobodji, Arda Kizildag, Salem M'Bakata, Marko Jevtovic, Deian Sorescu, Jamiro Monteiro, Alexandru Maxim, Mustafa Eskihellac and Denis Drăguş.
