Contrary to fans and manager Calimbay's wishes, Sivasspor had a very quiet transfer window. Angielski was brought in as the veteran Yatabare is struggling with the demands of top-tier football. Their performance against Trabzonspor in the Turkish Super Cup was abysmal and they fully deserved the 4-0 loss. They will dominate possession here and create quite a few chances. Unlike their opponents, Gaziantepspor were quite active in the transfer window bringing in eight new players and parting ways with four, including the goalscorer Demir and midfield dynamo Erdogan. They looked like a disjointed side in pre-season friendlies and it is quite obvious that Bulut needs more time to integrate the new arrivals to his system. 1:0
