Command Analysis
Fenerbahce
TurkeyCurrent form
Before the start of the season, Fenerbahce, along with Galatasaray, were considered clear contenders for the championship title, having made a number of major transfers in the summer and invited Jose Mourinho to the position of head coach. However, the Canaries frankly failed in the first round and, although they currently occupy second place in the table, they are already 11 points behind Galatasaray, with a game in hand. In the last round, Fenerbahce drew 1:1 away to Eyupspor, significantly worsening their position in the championship race.

Hatayspor
TurkeyCurrent form
For objective reasons, Hatayspor could not set more ambitious goals for itself than maintaining its place in the Super League – in terms of player selection, the “white-maroons” are inferior to many competitors. For now, Riza Calimbay’s team is far from its goals in the championship and currently occupies only 18th place in the table. There is already a 10-point gap from the saving 15th place, which will be very difficult to make up. Having lost 1:3 to Adana Demirspor in the last round, Hatayspor suffered its ninth defeat of the season.
Disqualifications and injuries
Calvo, Demir, Fernandes and Saglam are disqualified. Okoronkwo is injured.
Interesting trends for betting

- Hatayspor have scored in two of their last three matches
Probable line-up: Kardesler - Matondo, Yilmaz Sertel, Cherekci - Diak, Bambgoe, Parmak, Rui Pedro, Butobba - Aboubakar.

3.75Tip and bets
Fenerbahce is the undisputed favorite of the match and will certainly play only for victory today. The Canaries are impressive in attack and have a huge advantage in class over their opponents - the guests will probably get several goals in their goal already in the first half. However, Hatayspor has absolutely nothing to lose, the guests will probably take risks and strive to prove themselves in attack - Fenerbahce has not been distinguished by reliability in defense lately and a goal by the white-maroons will not be too big a sensation.
We believe that there will be goals in the match. Forecast - both will score . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 2.15
Bet on the outcome
Fenerbahce lost points in the last round and are already well behind Galatasaray - there is no more room for error. It is obvious that today the "canaries" will have plenty of motivation and a minimum chance to avoid a rout of the guests. In terms of class, the "white-maroons" are significantly inferior, but at the same time they will be missing four players due to disqualifications, it makes sense in such a situation to count on a confident and big victory for the favorite.
Bet - Asian handicap (-2) on Fenerbahce. This bet is offered for 1.61
Bet on corners
Fenerbahce are the favourites and will probably spend the entire 90 minutes attacking – the home team should win confidently on corners.
