Fenerbahce has suffered only one defeat on their home turf in the Super Lig campaign thus far. Moreover, they have consistently found the net with a minimum of two goals in each of their last 11 Super Lig encounters. On the other hand, Besiktas has maintained an undefeated streak spanning five matches across various competitions.
In their recent away clash against Sivasspor, Fenerbahce seemed poised to secure three crucial points to keep pace with table-toppers Galatasaray. However, a last-gasp penalty by Rey Minaj dashed their hopes, leaving them trailing by four points.
Despite lingering aspirations for the league title, Fenerbahce acknowledges the formidable challenge that awaits as they prepare to host Besiktas, one of the most significant fixtures in Turkish football. This task is compounded by Besiktas' own determination to secure a European football berth for the upcoming season.
Besiktas, although unbeaten in their last five outings across all competitions, have managed only two victories. They aim to secure at least a draw on the road, a commendable feat considering Fenerbahce's formidable home record, having lost just once this season and amassed 39 points from 17 home fixtures.
However, Besiktas will be without the services of influential forward Semih Kilicsoy due to a muscle injury. Notably, Fenerbahce emerged victorious in the previous encounter between the two sides this season, securing a 3-1 win.
Both teams have alternated victories in their last two head-to-head matchups, preceded by consecutive draws. Given Fenerbahce's scoring streak in the Super Lig and Besiktas' consistent scoring form barring one match in their last five outings, it is highly probable that both teams will find the net once again. The competitive spirit inherent in this fixture is evident, with four of the last five meetings witnessing goals from both sides. Therefore, predicting both teams to score appears a prudent choice, offering odds of 1.76.
Fenerbahce and Besiktas approach one of Turkish football's grandest clashes, often dubbed the Intercontinental derby, with distinct aspirations. While Fenerbahce trails the league leader Galatasaray by four points and clings to hopes of clinching the title, Besiktas strives to secure a European football berth.
Fenerbahce had been enjoying a remarkable streak of seven consecutive victories, ensuring they stayed in step with Galatasaray. However, their momentum was halted on Monday when Ismail Kartal's squad managed only a solitary point on their travels against Sivasspor. Now, Fenerbahce finds themselves in a position where they must secure victories in every remaining fixture and rely on Galatasaray slipping up. The odds may appear slim, but hope remains the sole beacon for Fenerbahce. In their draw against Sivasspor, Fenerbahce held a 2-1 lead, only to concede a late goal in stoppage time, leaving Kartal's side with just one point.
Besiktas' recent form has been far from impeccable, having only secured victories in two of their last seven outings across all competitions. In their most recent encounter, Besiktas played out a goalless draw away from home in the cup semifinal against Ankaragucu. Given that it was only the first leg, Besiktas can find solace in the result, knowing they'll enter the subsequent fixture at Tupras Stadium as favorites.
