Welcome to the show! Today's leading heroes are Fenerbahçe and Rizespor, 3 points is the target and 1 1/2 hours the duration.

Insights:
  • Fenerbahçe have the the best goal difference (+10) in Super Lig
  • Rizespor have scored in all their away matches so far.

Rizespor have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1100 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

These are hustling days for the home side, as they had a game only three days ago in the Super Lig. This match was also played here at Ülker Stadyumu Fenerbahçe Şükrü Saracoğlu Spor Kompleksi. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Rizespor have had more rest.
