Gaziantep are set to be without Ali Mevran Ablak and Salem M'Bakata due to knee issues and there is a doubt over the fitness of Myenty Abena. Christopher Lungoyi, however, is expected to shake off a knock to start.

As for Fenerbahce, Cenk Tosun, Irfan Can Kahveci and Mert Hakan Yandas are all set to miss out.

Gaziantep vs Fenerbahce Odds

Gaziantep are 4/1 to claim all three points at home, with the draw priced at 11/4 and Fenerbahce the 8/13 favourites to clinch their sixth league win of the season.

Gaziantep to win @ 4/1

Gaziantep are just two points behind Fenerbahce heading into this contest and the Falcons have shown enough form of late to suggest they can clinch the victory that would see them overhaul the Yellow Canaries.

Head coach Burak Yilmaz has turned the club's fortunes around since being confirmed as Ismet Tasdemir's replacement on August 19, with the Turkish tactician unbeaten in his seven matches at the helm (W5 D2).

Gaziantep have won three and drawn one of Yilmaz's four home games in charge and they have been in great scoring form during this run, netting at least twice in all of those contests.

Since Domenico Tedesco succeeded Jose Mourinho in charge of Fener, he has won five, drawn three and lost one of his nine matches in all competitions.

What is very apparent, though, is that all five victories have come on home soil and his side have failed to replicate those types of performances on their travels.

Tedesco's troops have drawn two and lost one of his three away games and that is a big concern as Fenerbahce prepare to face a Gaziantep side who have been excellent at home.

Kacper Kozlowski anytime goalscorer @ 5/1

Gaziantep have spread the goals around in the Super Lig, with 11 different players getting on the scoresheet, but it is Kacper Kozlowski who leads the way in the club's charts with three goals.

The 22-year-old Poland international has scored in his last two league appearances, bagging in the 2-0 victory at Fatih Karagumruk and in the 3-2 home success over Antalyaspor.

Kozlowski has proven himself to be an attacking threat and he looks capable of extending his scoring streak to three matches.
