📰 Team News: Kayserispor

It doesn’t get much better regarding selection, with just the sole fitness concern for the Kayserispor boss Sinan Kaloğlu to be concerned with from of an almost fully healthy squad. Arif Kocaman (Adductor injury) is out of contention.

It’s our opinion that Anadolu Yıldızı should opt for a 4-2-3-1 formation featuring Onurcan Piri, Lionel Carole, Joseph Attamah, Julian Jeanvier, Dimitris Kolovetsios, Kartal Yilmaz, Baran Gezek, Aylton Boa Morte, Miguel Cardoso, Hasan Ali Kaldirim and Stephane Bahoken.

🗞️ Team News: Samsunspor

Owing to an otherwise available group, there’s only the one fitness problem for the Samsunspor gaffer Thomas Reis to contend with. Youssef Aït Bennasser (unknown injury) won’t be playing here.

We are inclined to think that Kırmızı Şimşekler appear most likely to make use of a 4-2-3-1 formation, starting Okan Kocuk, Zeki Yavru, Lubomir Satka, Yunus Emre Cift, Soner Gonul, Y. Aït Bennasser, Celil Yüksel, Kingsley Schindler, Carlo Holse, Emre Kilinc and Marius Mouandilmadji.

⚡ Prediction

We’re of the opinion that Kayserispor will have to play well to find the net against this Samsunspor outfit who we think will likely emerge victorious.
