Betting on Sivasspor
The team led by Rıza Çalımbay is going through a tough time in its domestic league. With just 24 points, they are in the relegation zone in the Turkish Super League along with Istanbulspor. It was precisely against this direct rival that they lost in their last matchday by a resounding 0-3.
However, at home, Yiğidolar now registers two consecutive victories, three in its last five games. And that’s not all, playing in front of his home crowd they scored in 80% of their games. This encourages betting that the home side will score at least one goal in this match.
The Turkish coach will not be able to count on one of his stars, Max Gradel, who was sent off in the first leg and will only be able to return to the competition in the event of a hypothetical qualification to the quarterfinals.
Probable lineup (4-3-3): Ali Sasal Vural; Murat Paluli, Dimitris Goutas, Aaron Appindangoyé, Uğur Ciftci; Hakan Arslan, Isaac Cofie, Charis Charisis; Samu Saiz, Jordy Caicedo, Erdoğan Yesilyurt.
Betting on Fiorentina
Fiorentina register five wins in a row, with the last one coming last Sunday at Cremonese. It was a 2-0 win with goals from Rolando Mandragora and Arthur Cabral. What’s more, the team coached by Vincenzo Italiano comes into this crucial match on the back of three consecutive away successes. As if that weren’t enough, the visiting team averaged three goals per game and kept a clean sheet in all of them.
The coach will have to make at least one forced change, as Cristiano Biraghi will not start due to suspension and his place will be taken by Luca Ranieri or Lorenzo Venuti. The other doubt is whether Pietro Terracciano, who is still not fully recovered from his injury, will be present. If he does not arrive in time, as he did against Cremonese, his replacement will be Salvatore Sirigu.
Probable line-up (4-3-3): Pietro Terracciano; Dodò, Nikola Milenkovic, Igor, Luca Ranieri or Lorenzo Venuti; Rolando Mandragora, Sofyan Amrabat, Giacomo Bonaventura; Nicolás Gonzalez, Arthur Cabral, Jonathan Ikoné.
JefeBet Prediction
The background is more than encouraging to the unbiased viewer. The fact is that in 70% of the matches played by both teams this season, the Over (2.5) was present in the scoreboard. Likewise, in 80% of the aforementioned games, there were at least two goals.
Taking into consideration these statistics and the fact that both teams average almost two goals per game so far this season, JefeBet believes that this Sivasspor vs Fiorentina game will be a thrilling one.
Prediction: Over (SIV 1-2 FIO).
