Fenerbahce

Form: WWWDW

Fenerbahce secured a comfortable 3-0 victory on the road against Royal Union-Saint Gilloise in the first leg of the Europa League round of 16 on Thursday night, setting them with a comfortable aggregate advantage in their return leg.

Prior to that, first-half goals from Bright Osayi-Samuel and Cengiz Under witnessed them secure a comfortable 2-0 victory on the road against Hatayspor, which was compensation for their 3-0 defeat at the hands of Ankaragucu in the Turkish Cup. The Yellow Canaries still maintain a positive perspective given their impressive performance, which has seen them suffer one defeat in their last twenty matches across all competitions (W16, D3).

With 73 points accumulated in 28 matches played, Fenerbahce currently sits in second place in the Turkish Super Lig standings and is five points adrift of second-placed Galatasaray. 

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Livakovic; Oosterwolde, Aziz, Soyuncu, Kadioglu; Fred, Krunic; Under, Yandas, Tadic; Dzeko

Pendikspor

Form: LLLLW

Pendikspor, on the other hand, are in a relegation battle this season, having just been promoted to the top flight for the first time in their history. Despite being mired in the relegation zone, they still have an opportunity to reverse their fortunes for the better and can look forward to their upcoming matches against Istanbulspor and Samsunspor to do so, as their chances of getting a favorable outcome in this fixture are slim.

In their most recent round of the Turkish Super Lig, they succumbed to a disheartening 2-0 home defeat at the hands of Konyaspor. This extended their losing run in the league to four matches, and they enter this match lacking in confidence. In the reverse fixture against their opponents in this impending encounter, they were on the receiving end of a 5-0 thrashing at home, and a comparable outcome is foreseeable in this instance.

With 26 points accumulated in 28 matches played, Pendikspor occupy the 19th spot, firmly entrenched in the relegation zone within the Turkish Super Lig standings, and are three points adrift of safety.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-3-3

Canpolat; Ozgenc, Akca, Rassoul, Sequeira; Ndiaye, Lusamba, Cekici; Akbunar, Thiam, Nayir
