Fenerbahce to Win
Besiktas have the upper hand against Fenerbahce, winning twice and losing just once in their last three duels. The tide should turn in this meeting as the champions are struggling and have been sub-par, to say the least. With Fenerbahce claiming twice as many points as Besiktas in their last five fixtures, we are backing a home win for the Yellow Canaries.
Over 2.5 Goals
Meetings between Fenerbahce and Besiktas have been high scoring fixtures of late with three of their last five duels seeing at least four goals. With the Yellow Canaries scoring 11 goals in their last five fixtures and the Black Eagles conceding the same amount, this meeting should provide us with goals. Add in the fact that both sides have a lot of catching up to reach Trabzonspor, the onus will be high.
Both Teams to Score: Yes
Emotions run high in derby meetings and the Istanbul derby is no different. Five of the last six meetings between Fenerbahce and Besiktas have seen both sides get on the scoreboard and this encounter should not be any different. The Yellow Canaries are in good scoring form with 11 goals in their last five Super Lig fixtures. On the other hand, Besiktas will fancy their chances after scoring four goals past a hapless Kayserispor defence.
Fenerbahce vs Besiktas Fixture Preview
Fenerbahce
A third-place finish gave Vítor Pereira a lease of life at the Ülker Stadyumu but the Portuguese will be wary of the threat to his job. While Trabzonspor continues to build their lead at the top, the Yellow Canaries are in the chasing pack. In recent weeks, they have constantly seen their rankings plummet and the situation exacerbated by their 3-2 defeat to Gaziantep.
Besiktas
The summer saw Besiktas add their 16th domestic title to their trophy cabinet. This season was supposed to usher in their dominance but they have failed to live up to the expectations. The Black Eagles have lost three of their last five fixtures but their dominating performance against Kayserispor should have allayed fears about them. As they make the crosstown trip, all eyes will be on Michy Batshuayi, who gave in a man of the match performance with two goals and an assist.
