Gaziantep

Form: DDWDL

Gaziantep played out their second draw for the first time this season since January 2023, as they shared the spoils with Hatayspor in their recent match after playing a goalless draw away from home.

Having secured only one victory in seven league matches, Gaziantep's form has been subpar (D3 L3) and they will need to up the ante as they find themselves entangled in a relegation scrap. At the Gaziantep Stadium, the fans have been deprived of joy as Marius Ęumudică's men are currently on a four-match winless run and have won just three of their eight matches. Returning to the win column might pose a formidable challenge considering their difficulties against the upcoming opponents.

With 21 points accumulated from 19 matches, Gaziantep occupy the 14th spot in the Turkish Super Lig standings, level on points with 13th-placed Ankaragucu, and have maintained a three-point advantage over the relegation zone.

Fenerbahce

Form: WWDWW

The Yellow Canaries have cultivated a tendency for securing significant victories in the recent week, with twelve goals scored in just two matches. Their most recent match saw them baptize Konyaspor with a 7-1 victory at home, and this comes after thrashing Istanbulspor 5-1 away from home.

Away from home, Ismail Kartal's men have won three consecutive matches. What stands out in their remarkable away performance is their unbeaten streak of nine matches, comprising eight victories and a lone draw, and they will be confident in stretching that run to ten matches with a comfortable win in this one.

With 50 points collected from 19 matches, Fenerbahce sits atop the Turkish Super Lig standings and has maintained a two-point advantage over second-placed Galatasaray.
