Team News

Adana Demirspor
Istanbulspor
  • Mario Balotelli is sidelined with a long-term knee injury.
  • Ertac Ozbir, who wasn't expected to start here, is also injured.
  • Jonas Svensson's contract has been terminated by mutual consent, and Henry Onyekuru and Cherif Ndiaye have left for Al-Fahya and Red Star Belgrade respectively.
  • After publicly announcing his desire to leave Adana and return to Ligue 1, M'Baye Niang is not expected to feature.
  • Eslem Ozturk is likely to deputise for the suspended Muammer Sarikaya.
  • Eduard Rroca and Kubilay Koylu, neither of whom were expected to start here, are injured.

Prediction

  • Despite going through their biggest crisis in recent history, Adana Demirspor managed to keep Basaksehir to a goalless draw last time out.
  • An overhaul is underway at Adana Demirspor, with high-paid, underperforming stars slowly being replaced by young, promising players.
  • In the long run, they will benefit immensely from this strategy and in the short-run, the squad is still strong enough to comfortably hover around on the top half of the table.
  • Istanbulspor were demolished 5-1 by Fenerbahce last time out. This was their 4th loss in a row and there is not much to be said about their performance.
  • Yakin has not been able to solve either defensive or offensive problems at the club primarily because this is not a strong enough squad. Another very long 90 minutes await Istanbulspor.
