Player to watch: Okan Kocuk
Okan Kocuk has been impressive for Samsunspor in recent weeks. He has conceded just once in his last three appearances, making a total of nine saves in the process. However, only two teams have scored more goals than Istanbul Basaksehir in the Super Lig this season, so it will be interesting to see how Kocuk fares against the league's joint-top scorer, Krzysztof Piatek.
