Fenerbahce to Win

While the Super Lig title now seems out of reach, Fenerbahce still need points to ensure they secure their place as runners up and with it a berth in the Champions League and Ismail Kartal’s side can aid their cause with a victory at Rizespor on Friday. Fenerbahce are targeting their seventh straight victory over the relegation contenders this week and The Yellow Canaries should have too much class for their ailing hosts again.

Over 1.5 Fenerbahce Team Goals

Rizespor hold the Super Lig’s worst defensive record this season having shipped 59 goals in 33 games and Fenerbahce lodged four of those efforts when the teams last met in early December. More recently, Fenerbahce have scored at least twice in five league tussles on the bounce and they are available at a tempting price to beat the over 1.5 team goals line again on Friday.

Serdar Dursun to Score Anytime

Serdar Dursun helped himself to a terrific hattrick when Fenerbahce battered Rizespor 4-0 before Christmas and the 30-year-old will be determined to punish the same defence when the teams meet for Friday’s rematch in Rize. Dursun has registered twice in his last four appearances for club and country and he can carry his good recent form into this week’s fixture.

Rizespor vs Fenerbahce Match Preview and Team News

Rizespor

Attacker Yusuf Sari is listed at Rizespor’s only current injury concern ahead of Friday’s game. Rizespor won each of their last two home matches, beating leaders Trabzonspor and third-placed Konyaspor in an unexpected pair of victories. The Karadeniz Atmacası have a dreadful record against Fenerbahce however, and a third shock win on the spin at home feels unlikely as a result.

Fenerbahce

Fenerbahce have reported no fresh injuries this week and they head to Rize with a full complement of players available. The Yellow Canaries were on song at the weekend when they recorded their third straight victory to nil at Goztepe’s expense. On the road, Fenerbahce have won three games in a row, netting a superb 11 times along the way.
