Karagumruk were beaten 3-1 by Gaziantep last time out. Demirel's inexperience as a manager is starting to show. Their struggles at the back have got even worse since the departure of right-back Hedenstad. They have found games most difficult against teams that like to counter-attack, which is what Rizespor do. Rizespor held Besiktas to a 2-2 draw last time out but should count themselves lucky, as it would be have been a far different game had Michy Batshuayi taken his chances. They will defend deep here and chase opportunities on the counter through wide players like Bolasie and Boyd. 1:1
Rizespor have failed to win their last 9 away matches (Super Lig). Fatih Karagumruk have failed to win their last 5 home matches (Super Lig).
Jure Balkovec is expected to deputise for the suspended Caner Erkin. Kerim Frei and Tunay Torun, neither of whom were expected to start against Rizespor, are unavailable due to injury and suspension, respectively. Ahmed Musa is on international duty at the Africa Cup of Nations. Emirhan Topcu is expected to feature as a make-shift right-back as Gokhan Gonul is suspended. Fabricio Baiano is also suspended with Bryan Dabo likely to deputise.
