Team News

Trabzonspor
Istanbulspor
  • Huseyin Turkmen has suffered an Achilles tendon rupture and will not feature for the remainder of the season.
  • Taxiarchis Fountas is likely to start as Trezeguet is injured.
  • Umut Gunes is expected to deputise for the suspended Berat Ozdemir.
  • Eslem Ozturk, Izzet Topatar, and Enver Sarialioglu, none of whom were expected to start here, are injured.

Prediction

  • Trabzonspor were beaten 3-1 by Samsunspor last time out. Their minds were obviously on the midweek Turkish Cup semi-final, which they won 4-0. Against the relegated Istanbulspor, expect a very dominant performance and a comfortable win.
  • Istanbulspor were beaten 1-0 by Adana Demirspor last time out. Here, they will defend very deep and try to frustrate their hosts but their defending has been woeful since the start of the season and there is not reason to assume things will be any different here.
