Kasimpasa vs Fenerbahce Predictions

• The main selection won in each of the last three H2H encounters.
• Both sides posted games with over 3.5 total goals on the opening day.
• Both teams scored in a second league-high 25 of Kasimpasa’s games last season.

Monday night in Istanbul… expect fireworks!

Two sides who opened their respective campaigns with high scoring games come head-to-head as last season’s 11th-placed finishers Kasimpasa welcome the 2021/22 runners up Fenerbahce.

It is last season’s second-placed finishers who usually come out on top in meetings between these two, with Fenerbahce winning each of the last five encounters. There were often goals aplenty in those games though, with four ending with at least three in total.

Games involving Kasimpasa last term averaged a league-high 3.3 goals per-game, while 24 produced at least three goals, another joint league-high. Such a consistently high scoring return leads us to believe this may yet be another entertaining evening for the neutrals in Istanbul.

Going for goals

New Fenerbahce boss Jorge Jesus hasn’t exactly has the smoothest of starts to life at the Turkish giants, but he is likely to finally get off the mark in league action in this encounter with a markedly average Kasimpasa who may still be reeling from their opening day 4-0 defeat.

However, the route we want to play in this game is the over 2.5 goals market, the price may not be massive but the likelihood of it landing seems very high. As for the correct score, we’re backing Fenerbahce to make it a hat-trick of 2-1 victories over their cross-city rivals.
