LiontipsFenerbahce vs Bodrumspor. Prediction and bets on the Turkish championship match
Command Analysis
Current form
Jose Mourinho men have not yet pleased fans in the Turkish Super League. After eight matches played, the team has 17 points and is only in fourth place. The leading Galatasaray has 25 points, although it has played one match more. This is clearly not the result that fans expected from the Portuguese specialist. In the last round, Fenerbahce was unable to beat Samsunspor away (2:2), and they conceded the second goal from their opponent at the very end.
The hosts failed to qualify for the Champions League, losing to French side Lille. However, they have managed to go unbeaten in the Europa League so far - after a narrow victory over Union Saint-Gillois (2:1), the team drew with Twente (1:1) and Manchester United (1:1).
Disqualifications and injuries
Egribayat, Osayi-Samuel, Yuksek, Under, Kostic and Oosterwolde will not play today due to injuries. Fred will miss the game due to an accumulation of yellow cards.
Interesting trends for betting
- The team has drawn its last three matches.
- The club has not lost in five matches in a row
Probable line-up : Livakovic – Muldur, Bekao, Djiku, Osterwolde – Amrabat, Fred – Kahveci, Shimansky, Tadic – Dzeko.
Current form
Bodrumspor managed to perform well in the First League last year. There, the club from Bodrum took fourth place and got a chance to get into the top division through the playoffs. The team successively beat Boluspor (2:0), Corum (2:1) and Sakaryaspor (3:1), receiving the long-awaited promotion. At this level, it is clearly not easy for the guests - four defeats in the first five matches. Then the guests managed to pull themselves together and won against Hatayspor (1:0) and Adana Demirspor (3:1). After that, there was a draw with Kasimpasa (0:0) and a minimal defeat to Rizespor (0:1). Thanks to these results, the club rose to 12th place in the table, but is still only two points above the relegation zone.
Disqualifications and injuries
Bayrakdar, Erdilman and Gerell will miss the match. Akpinar and Ozdamar appearance on the field is questionable.
Interesting trends for betting
- The team has suffered only one defeat in its last four matches.
- Bodrumspor have not conceded a single goal in their last two away matches
Estimated line-up : Souza - Ergun, Ayeti, Aitemir, Shen - Mohammed, Dimitrov, Bilsel, Seferi, Fredy - Puskas.

1.75Tip and bets
The hosts are far behind the championship leaders and it is time to regain their leadership positions. Fenerbahce is clearly stronger than most teams in the Turkish Super League, including Bodrumspor, so the favorite must achieve a confident victory. We believe that Jose Mourinho will be able to properly set up his team and the game will end with a victory for the hosts by at least two goals.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-1.5) on Fenerbahce for 1.90
Bet on total
The hosts have no problems converting their chances. The team never left the field without scoring goals, even against the strongest opponents. The visitors are unlikely to be able to hold back the attacking onslaught of their opponents, so we expect at least three goals scored here.
Forecast - total over 2.5 goals with odds of 1.65
Bet on corners
The hosts will probably take the initiative from the very first minutes and will attack until the final whistle. In this scenario, the favorite should win not only by the score, but also by the number of corners, which is what we suggest betting on.
Forecast - Asian handicap (-3.5) on Fenerbahce with odds of 1.77
