Trabzonspor won 5-1 against Fatih Karagumruk at Papara Park, which was a perfect response after losing 3-1 to Alanyaspor on the road, halting a three-match winning streak—a run that played an important part for them in cementing their Europa League qualifier spot against Besiktas. 

Trabzonspor has only experienced one loss in their previous five league fixtures (W4), indicating a significant upturn in performance considering they were on a five-match winless run (L4 D1). At Papara Park, Abdullah Avcı's wards are currently on a three-match winning streak, and it goes without saying they'll be backing themselves up for a favorable outcome in this matchup. 

With 49 points amassed, Trabzonspor currently sits in third place in the Turkish Super Lig standings, three points ahead of fourth-placed Besiktas and a massive 27 points behind their opponents in this impending encounter. 

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Cakir; Meunier, Baniya, Denswil, Elmali; Mendy, Ozdemir; Bardhi, Visca, Trezeguet; Pepe

Fenerbahce

Form: WWWWD

Thanks to their 3-0 goal cushion from the first leg of the Europa Conference League round of 16, the Yellow Canaries were able to book themselves a spot in the quarterfinals despite suffering a 1-0 home defeat at the hands of Belgian opposition Royal Union-Saint Gilloise. This signifies their fourth appearance in the quarter-finals of the European competition.

While Fenerbahce have been alternating between occupying the top spot and playing the second fiddle in the standings, their involvement in the title race has been mainly helped by their 24 victories out of 29 matches played this season, with four draws and a solitary defeat in the process, and Ismail Kartal still clings to a glimmer of hope that his side can capture this season's league title. In their most recent league match, they cruised to a hard-fought 4-1 victory against Pendikspor at home, extending their winning run to four matches.

With 76 points amassed in 29 matches played, Fenerbahce currently sits in second place in the Turkish Super Lig standings and is two points adrift of first-placed Galatasaray.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Expert Betting Tips

Fenerbahce might be favorites with bookmakers in this fixture, but there's no denying they are up for a challenging 90 minutes away from home against a side that defeated them 3-2 in the reverse fixture at home, an outcome they'll be seeking to avoid as this could cost them dearly in their title race this season.

Considering that both teams have scored in fourteen of their last sixteen meetings, we expect the same trend to persist in this fixture, as picking up a winner in the full-time market could go sideways despite the away side being clear favorites for a three-pointer.
