Persepolis Lineup Announced

Persepolis Aims for Victory and Top Spot with Three Changes to Starting Lineup.

According to "Varzesh Se", Persepolis, after winning 3-1 against Sanat Naft Abadan, will face Khyber Khorramabad this evening in the delayed match of the seventh week of the Premier League. A match that has given Mehdi Tartar's students the opportunity to reach the top of the table. The Reds enter this match with 16 points and a victory in Takhti Stadium will bring their points to 19.

Mehdi Tartar has made three changes in his team's starting line-up for this match and sent Auston Oronov, Puya Pourali and Ali Alipour to the field from the beginning. The three players who started their work against Sanat Naft from the bench and by entering in the second half, played a role in the victory of Persepolis.

The most important change is Oronov's return to the left side of the attack. Tiwi Bifuma, who scored his team's first goal against Sanat Naft, suffered a cold in the past few days. Although according to Ambassador Arjan, this player's medical problem has been resolved to a large extent and he is able to accompany his team, Tartar has chosen Oronov to start the match against Khyber.

The Uzbek player took Bifuma's place in the previous match and took advantage of his opportunity. Oronov entered the field in the 75th minute and ten minutes later, with the cooperation of Mohammad Mahdi Mohebi, he scored the third goal of Persepolis. His first goal of the season was scored in a situation where the oil industry had reduced the difference to one goal and was trying to compensate for the result. Now that effective presence has been accompanied by the return of the starting eleven.

Inside the gate, the required message is still Tartar's choice. The red-faced goalkeeper, who prevented his team from losing the advantage against Sanat Naft with his reaction at the end of the first half, will be behind Persepolis' unchanged defense line. Majid Eidi plays on the right side and Mehdi Tikdari on the left side, and Mehdi Zare and Hossein Abargoui are also the central defense couple.

Mohammad Hossein Kananizadegan is not present in this match due to injury, but after returning to group training, Daniyal Iri has accompanied the Persepolis caravan on its trip to Khorramabad. However, Tartar has once again relied on Zare and Abarqoui to keep the pair from the previous match. This match is especially important for Abargoui, because he is playing against his former team, Khyber.

In the middle of the field, Puya Pourali returns to the main composition. This midfielder, who was injured before the match with Sanat Naft, started the previous game from the bench and came on at the beginning of the second half. Now he will be next to Mohammad Khodabandelou from the beginning to form the central pair of Persepolis midfield. Covering the space in front of the defenders and delivering the ball to the attackers will be one of the important duties of these two players in Khorramabad.

Mohammad Mehdi Mohebi has also kept his position on the right side. Against Sanat Naft, he played a role in securing the victory of Persepolis with an assist for Oronov, and now these two players are present on both sides of the midfield from the beginning. Their cooperation in the previous match was one of the most effective scenes of the Red-faced attack, which Tartar hopes to repeat in the meeting with Khyber.

In the attack line, Ali Alipour and Igor Sergeev play next to each other. Alipour scored from the penalty spot in the previous match after coming on at the start of the second half and is now back in the starting line-up. Against Sanat Naft, Sergif provided the early advantage of Persepolis with a goal assist to Bifuma, and today he forms the attack line together with Alipour.

In this way, Pouria Latififar, Mohammad Omri and Tivi Bifuma have left the starting line-up of the previous match, and Pourali, Alipour and Oronov have taken their place in the eleven. Persepolis welcomes the match with four midfielders and two strikers, whose three points will give the top of the table to the Reds.
