Team News

Rizespor
Samsunspor
  • Benhur Keser and Dal Varesanovic, neither of whom wwere expected to start here, are injured.
  • Anil Yasar is set to deputise for the injured Husniddin Aliqulov.
  • Newest arrival Rachid Ghezzal lacks match fitness and is unlikely to start.
  • Manager Thomas Reis has a full squad available to pick from.

Prediction

  • Rizespor were demolished 5-0 by Galatasaray last time out. This was their second 5-0 defeat in their last three outings. At this point, Palut's team can neither defend nor attack. Against a solid Samsunspor side a long 90 minutes await Rize.
  • Samsunspor were 2-0 victors against Basaksehir. They defended very well and forced their opponents to take one tame long shot after another and fully deserved their win. Expect another compact performance here.
  • Samsunspor are favorites but they are still struggling in front of goal so a very narrow away win is likely.
