Fenerbahce
After drawing three games in row, Fenerbahce finally won last weekend with 3-2 against one of the best sides in Turkey this season – Yeni Malatyaspor. That victory should improve their confidence in front of this important game, because Fenerbahce currently sit just two points above direct relegation places. This has been a disastrous season for them so far, but they should do better in the upcoming months.
Despite having an awful season overall, Fenerbahce significantly improved their home performances recently. They are currently unbeaten in 4 straight home games, winning and drawing twice. They were very efficient in those home games as well, scoring at least twice in each of the four unbeaten home games.
Fenerbahce lost their first duel against Goztepe with 1-0 this season, but they are currently playing much better than they did in the opening few months of the season.
Goztepe
Goztepe are another team from the bottom in the Turkey Super Lig, just two points above Fenerbahce and four points above relegation places. They are a below-average side with main goal to remain in the league, but their way of playing was not very good in the recent weeks. Last weekend Goztepe lost with 0-1 at home against Galatasaray, which was their fourth defeat in their last six games.
One of the reasons why Goztepe are dropping so many points is their weak attack. They have been one of the weakest attacking teams in Turkey this season, scoring just 20 goals in 19 games.
Another thing to keep in mind is that Goztepe are the weakest away team in Turkey this season, losing 8 of their 10 away games.
The Betting Verdict
Fenerbahce are under big pressure to keep collecting points because they are dangerously close to the direct relegation places. Time is slowly running out for them, but they performed well recently and should be able to pick up where they left last week.
Goztepe played solid football in most of their home games, but they have been terrible away, losing majority of their matches quite easily.
Fenerbahce are slowly getting into rhythm and I believe they will emerge victorious from this match.
The Pick :
Fenerbahce 2-1 Goztepe
