Team News

Hatayspor
Fenerbahce
  • Mehdi Boudjemaa is set to deputise for the injured Fisayo Dele-Bashiru.
  • Burak Yilmaz will start at center back as Guy-Marcelin Kilama is suspended.
  • Giorgi Aburjania is also injured but he wasn't expected to start anyways.
  • Irfan Can Kahveci is injured and Kartal would have been expected to use Cengiz Under in his place but the Turkish international's recent performances have been far from meeting expectations so, Michy Batshuayi might get a start on the right wing here.
  • Rodrigo Becao is set to deputise for the suspended Alexander Djiku.
  • Luan Peres and Joshua King, neither of whom were expected to start against Hatayspor, are sidelined with injury.
  • Fred has returned to training much earlier than expected but Kartal is likely not to risk him unless absolutely necessary. So, Mert Hakan Yandas is likely to start as Rade Krunic's recent form has been rather disappointing.

Prediction

  • Hatayspor were beaten 2-0 by Konyaspor last time out. They defended well in the first half but were unable to respond after falling behind. They need to do more going forward if they are to survive this season. Against Fenerbahce though, Demirel's team will be defending even deeper than usual.
  • Fenerbahce were 2-1 winners against Kasimpasa last time out. The victory came thanks to a late, late goal by Batshuayi. Then, the Canaries suffered a shocking defeat at the hands of Ankaragucu in the midweek Turkish Cup tie. So, with the Super Lig title remaining the only reasonable silverware expectation this season, Kartal and his players will see this game as a chance to make a statement.
