Team News

Rizespor
Kayserispor
  • Tarik Cetin is set to start in goal as Gokhan Akkan is injured.
  • Janne-Pekka Laine, Dal Varesanovic, and Benhur Keser, none of whom were expected to start against Kayserispor, are also injured.
  • Jonjo Shelvey, Emirhan Topcu, and Muammer Sarikaya have all served their suspension and will return to the starting XI.
  • Dimitrios Kolovetsios is set to start at center back as Arif Kocaman is suspended and Majid Hosseini injured.
  • Anthony Uzodimma, who wasn't expected to start here, is also injured.
  • Ali Karimi has served his suspension and will retain his place in the starting XI.

Prediction

  • Rizespor were beaten 3-0 by Samsunspor last time out. As expected, in the absence of Shelvey and Sarikaya, Palut's midfield could not control the game and it was an easy win for Samsunspor. The midfielders' return will add strength to Rizespor but they have had ongoing problems all over the pitch since the start of the second half of the season. With their abysmal form in mind, a point here might be music to Palut's ears.
  • Kayserispor were 3-2 winners against Ankaragucu last time out. This was Yilmaz's second win in a row and they haven't lost in their last five outings. The young manager knows his team's limitations and refrains from taking unnecessary risks. Expect to see a disciplined, compact Kayseri side here.
