Adana Demirspor have kept a clean sheet in their last 3 away matches against Gaziantep FK in all competitions. There have been under 2.5 goals scored in 6 of Gaziantep FK's last 7 home games (Super Lig). Gaziantep FK are undefeated in their last 10 home matches (Super Lig). Adana Demirspor are undefeated in their last 5 matches (Super Lig).
Mustafa Eskihallac, who wasn't expected to start here, is manager Erol Bulut's only injury concern. Gokhan Inler is set to deputise for the suspended Benjamin Stambouli. Yusuf Sari is carrying a minor knock and will be assessed but he wasn't expected to start here anyway. Yaroslav Rakitskiy has served his suspension and will return to the starting XI.
Gaziantepspor suffered a surprising 1-0 defeat at the hands of Kasimpasa last time out. This was their third loss in their last four outings and although defeats against the likes of Galatasaray and Trabzonspor can be explained away, the hapless, lifeless performance against Kasimpasa cannot. Bulut need to avoid another loss and so against a strong Adana Demirspor side, expect Gaziantepspor to defend very deep. Adana Demirpsor shared points with Galatasaray last time out. They were uncharacteristically subdued in attack and conceded too many chances for Montella's liking. The return of experienced defender Rakitskiy will remedy the latter. As for the former, Montella's experimentation with using attacking midfielders Akbaba or Belhanda as fake nines despite having recognised strikers such as Gulbrandsen and Dzyuba at his disposal, has been called into question by pundits. Adana Demirspor are the stronger team but Gaziantepspor are very tough to beat at home. A draw is the likeliest result here. 1:1
