Both İstanbulspor and Fenerbahçe are itching for points in this match, even with the away team having a 15 point lead so far this season.
- İstanbulspor have yet to win a game at home.
- Fenerbahçe have the most scored goals (29) in Super Lig
These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.
It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Europa League.
İstanbulspor form and stats
İstanbulspor have played 4 Super Lig games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 0-1-3 (wins-draws-losses). With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on İstanbulspor to get some points in this home game.
İstanbulspor faced defeat in their previous match, away at Antalyaspor (1-2). Jensen had a busy but productive day in the Antalyaspor match. Despite making six saves the loss could not be prevented. Mehremić was "man of the match" with a rating of 8.04 out of 10. The defender Mehremić scored one goal and won 7 of 9 duels.
Heartbreak before that as İstanbulspor lost 0-2 at Istanbul Basaksehir's place.The goals haven't exactly been flowing for İstanbulspor here at Atatürk Olimpiyat Stadı in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (3 from 4 games). Neutralizing the opposition is a challenge, İstanbulspor having conceded 10 goals here at Atatürk Olimpiyat Stadı so far. When İstanbulspor hosts teams that live on the top of the table (like Umraniyespor, Hatayspor, Sivasspor, Ankaragucu, Antalyaspor and Giresunspor), the matches have ended over 2.5 goals 2 of 3 times.
Fenerbahçe form and stats

Before that, Fenerbahçe secured a home win against Istanbul Basaksehir with the score 1-0.There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Fenerbahçe manager de Jesus as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Dynamo Kyiv.
With an average of more than two away goals per league game away, Fenerbahçe are regular goalscorers on their travels. The Fenerbahçe defense is a tough nut to crack, having conceded less than half a goal per away game on average ({1 goals} in 4 games).
