Published: April 04, 2015

Sivasspor have garnered 10 points from their last 5 away games in the Super Lig following their 3 -1 victory over Eskişehirspor at the EskişehirAtatürk Stadium on Saturday in the 26th round.

Super Eagles midfielder Raheem Lawal was included in Eskişehirspor’s starting XI for the 15th time this season, while John Utaka started the game from the bench for Sivasspor.

The most tangible impact from both Nigerians came from experienced forward John Utaka, who scored his third goal of the season just before the hour mark.

Lawal made way for Ibrahim Sissoko in the 63rd minute, with Eskişehirspor trailing the visitors 2 - 1 .

Today’s game was his first appearance in the Super Lig since he was red carded against Rizespor at the end of February.
