Team News

Yeni Malatyaspor
Hatayspor
  • Semih Kaya is expected to feature as a make-shift right back as Issam Chebake is injured, meaning Wallace will start at centre-back.
  • Selim Ilgaz is sidelined with a long-term injury and is not expected to feature this season.
  • Soner Ornek, who wasn't expected to start against Malatyaspor is also injured.
  • Mesut Caytemel is expected to deputise for the injured Alexandros Katranis.

Prediction

  • Malatyaspor demolished Rizespor 4-0 last time out. Unlike their opponents, they looked focused, attacked with intent from the first whistle onward, and were rewarded for their clinical finishing. They've all but guaranteed survival, for which they need a point from their last two games. Expect a cautious display as Buz will be wary of the counter-attacking threat Hatayspor pose.
  • Hatayspor beat Denizlispor 1-0 last time out. They created quite a few number of chances but were uncharacteristically profligate. It will be a massive achievement for Erdogan if his side can finish in top 5 in their first season at Super Lig. It will be a hard task to open up Malatyaspor's defence though, so Erdogan will likely have to content with a point here.
