The often unpredictable Turkish Super Lig is back once again this week as we enter the month of February. There’s still a lot left to be determined at both ends of the table, and that much is an understatement with the league being as chaotic as ever. Today, we’ll be taking a look at what should be another exciting clash as Fatih Karagumruk go head to head with Pendikspor.
Fenerbahce Form GuideFenerbahce are still recognised as one of the biggest club in Turkey, but the point must be made that it’s been a long time since they lifted the Super Lig title up high. While we’re only half way through the current season, it already seems like they’re going to be tussling it out with Galatasaray for that honour - as has been the case so often throughout their history.
Cengiz Under scored once again to put Fenerbahce 1-0 up against Antalyaspor, and while they left it late to seal the win, Michy Batshuayi’s injury time strike ensured they left with a pretty comfortable 2-0 victory.
Alanyaspor Form GuideAs one of the smaller clubs in Turkey’s premier division, Alanyaspor often have to scratch and claw in order to survive - and last season, they did well to vault themselves away from the threat of relegation. Their ability to force their way up through the ranks of Turkish football should be admired, but in the months ahead, the expectation is that they could be in for a bumpy ride.
Alanyaspor went 1-0 up on the road against Kasimpasa but unfortunately for them, the game slipped away with goals either side of half time handing Kasimpasa a deserved 2-1 victory.
Match PredictionAlanyaspor need to do something that really grabs the attention of Fenerbahce because if they can’t manage that, this is going to be a long night for them. In a game like this, you really do have to go off of form, which is why we’re going to favour a Fenerbahce win.
