Istanbul BB vs Fenerbahce Betting Tips & Predictions

Istanbul Basaksehir are proving very difficult to beat this season, and they will be hoping they can continue that trend for the remaining three games of the season in order to secure the 4th place finish that they currently occupy.

If they manage to win all of their remaining games they do have an outside chance of moving into 3rd position, but the more likely battle will be between them, Ankaraspor, and Galatasaray for the last of the Europa League qualification position. They sit two points above Ankaraspor in 5th and five ahead of the disappointing Galatasaray in 6th.

Istanbul BB come into this match unbeaten in six outings in the Super Lig, and they have only lost one of their last 14 league matches. However, their lack of winning spirit has led to a lot of dropped points. They have only won four of these 14 matches, drawing a huge nine games. This has seen them tail off after an impressive first half to the season.

Fenerbahce are where you would expect them to be: Challenging for the Turkish Super Lig title. However, they have quite a lot of work to do. They sit six points behind Besiktas with a game in hand on the leaders. They will take heart from the fact that Besiktas have to visit a Galatasaray side who have only lost once on home turf this season though.

The visitors come into this match having won five matches on the bounce in all competitions after they put an end to their four match winless streak which saw them knocked out of the Europa League. Their away form is a little more troublesome though, with just three wins in their last 11 outings in all competitions.

Istanbul BB have won seven, drawn three, and lost just one of their last 11 home games in the Super Lig, including a draw against leaders Besiktas and a 4-0 win over 3rd placed Konyaspor. They will be very difficult to beat at home, and Fenerbahce don’t have the best recent away record. Odds of 4.5 for an Istanbul BB Win or Draw Double Chance look good to me, and I’m going for a 2-2 correct score prediction due to both teams good attacking form.
