Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Fenerbahçe & Kasımpaşa face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Turkish Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
It's no vacation for neither Fenerbahçe nor Kasımpaşa as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
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.

The team is able to perform also as the away side, as they are nurturing a very healthy winning streak of four straight victories regardless of arena. Hopes of three in a row are alive for Fenerbahçe after consecutive victories at their own ground.
