The 60th final of the Turkish Cup is the Anatolia derby as it is called between Kayserispor and Sivaspor and will be held as always in Ataturk, Istanbul.
For the typical home team, it is the second participation in a final from which the conquest of the first domestic title in its history had emerged. In its first appearance in the final in 2008, it had beaten Genclerbirligi 11-10 on penalties, while two years earlier it had beaten Intertoto.
In a very difficult year for her who was for a long time in the last places and flirted with the relegation, she managed to turn the situation around in the second round, secured her stay early and finally the year is considered successful with her participation in the cup final where to get here he eliminated Fenerbahce and Besiktas with victories at home in single games. In a double semifinal with the champion Trabzonspor, she seemed to lose a hand after the 1-0 of the first match in Trabzon, but in the rematch of Caesarea, she qualified for the final with 4-2.
Sivasspor's year was not as good as last year when it finished 5th and went to Europe. In the middle of the standings this year in 10th place and for the cup the most difficult team that was called to face was Alanyaspor in double games and qualified with 2-1 and 1-1.
The finalists of the final competed on Saturday for the last match of the championship in Sevastia where the host prevailed with a score of 2-1 while in the first round the then host had won 3-0.
This year's final is predicted to be quite ambiguous, something that emerges from the prehistory of the two opponents as shown by 15-15-15. Slivaspor is a slight favorite in the odds to win the first title in its 55-year history, but I estimate that whoever the new cup winner Turkey will be, it will take more than 90 minutes of the regular time to emerge.
