Team News

Rizespor
Istanbulspor
  • Manager Ilhan Palut has a full squad available to pick from.
  • Emir Gultekin will lead the attack in Djakaridja Traore's absence.
  • Racine Coly, Eslem Ozturk, and Vefa Temel are also injured but none were expected to start anyway.

Prediction

  • Rizespor were beaten 2-0 by Gaziantepspor last time out. They had no response to Antep's counter-attacking football and deserved to lose in the end. This was their third loss in a row and a fourth one might see Palut's reign come to a quick end.
  • Istanbulspor were 2-1 losers against Samsunspor last time out. They've also lost three in a row but Yakin will be given more time at the helm as he has just signed for the club.
  • This is going to be a low tempo affair with not too many chances created by either side. Rizespor have to win this and at home, are likely to edge to victory.
