Fenerbahce allowed itself to slip up in the previous round, when the players relaxed too early and lost a two-goal lead over Goztepe. It is unlikely that such a situation will happen again, Jose Mourinho will definitely work on the mistakes. The visitors have a huge advantage in class, a balanced squad and a powerful attack, where the experienced Dzeko is currently standing out. In addition, the visitors have won the previous ten head-to-head matches.
Our prediction is a Fenerbahce victory with odds of 1.79

In the two previous head-to-head matches, Fenerbahce created a lead in the first half and won in that period. We expect in our betting tip that today the same scenario will develop on the field.
