Prediction

  • Fenerbahce beat Ankaragucu 2-1 last time out. The goal came in the dying seconds of stoppage time and Fenerbahce should count themselves lucky to have gotten away with three points here. They gave away too many chances, committed too many errors at the back, and were lucky as Ankaragucu were woeful in front of goal. They will struggle against a Sivas side that know how to defend and are really tough to beat.
  • Sivasspor were held to a 0-0 draw by Basaksehir last time out. Basaksehir's manager Kocaman used the exact game plan Calimbay uses when he faces stronger sides away from home: defend in numbers, absorb pressure in own half, do not allow any space in and around the box, and use flanks effectively for counterattacks. This plan has worked for Sivasspor in many away fixtures and is quite likely to work here as well.
