Team News

Kasimpasa
Rizespor
  • New arrival Sinan Bolat is expected to start in goal as Andreas Gianniotis is injured.
  • Amir Hadziahmetovic and Altin Zeqiri are set to deputise for the suspended Ibrahim Olawoyin and Rachid Ghezzal, respectively.
  • Eray Korkmaz is injured but he wasn't expected to start anyway.
  • Husniddin Aliqulov and Taha Sahin have served their suspensions and will return to the starting XI.

Prediction

  • Kasimpasa were 5-3 winners against Adana Demirspor last time out. Then, they were beaten 2-0 by second tier Istanbulspor in the Turkish Cup. Yılmaz's tenure here started with a win but also horrible defending in two games. Whether Piatkowski's arrival will provide a solution to that problem remains to be seen.
  • Rizespor were beaten 3-2 by Fenerbahce last time out. They went 2-0 up in the opening 15 minutes and were down to 10 men at the end of the first half. And still they only lost with a last minute. Showing that kind of resilience against Fenerbahce in Istanbul should be applauded and despite the loss, will have done wonders for the team morale.
  • If Yılmaz cannot find an immediate cure for his side's defensive woes, Rize could get a key away win here.

  • Kasimpasa has struggled at home winning just twice in 10 games, they are performing better in away games in fact. Their last 6 matches have averaged a whopping 6 goals per game. Rizespor has not fared much better on the road, winning 4 but losing 7 of 11 away games. With Rizespor also averaging 3.6 goals in their last 5 matches. Anothet high-scoring game looks likely.
