Player to watch: Rey Manaj
Although Sivasspor aren't particularly having their best league campaign, Rey Manaj has been one of the team's few bright spots. The Albanian was directly involved in 48% (20/42) of the team's goals this season.
In fact, only two players have scored more goals than Manaj in Turkey's top-flight. He also put up a man-of-the-match performance when these teams clashed in December, scoring the only goal of the game.
