Tune in to beIN SPORTS to catch all the action as Fenerbahce hosts Antalyaspor in a must-win match for the home side.

Fenerbahce Seeks to Keep Title Hopes Alive

With the Turkish Super Lig title race heating up, Fenerbahce cannot afford any missteps as they welcome Antalyaspor to the Sukru Saracoglu Stadium. The Yellow Canaries sit six points behind Galatasaray after 24 matches and are determined to stay in the fight for the top spot. After a frustrating goalless draw in the Intercontinental Derby, where they dominated chances but failed to capitalize, Jose Mourinho's team knows that only a win will suffice.

The controversy surrounding Mourinho’s post-match remarks against officials overshadowed the derby, leading to a four-game suspension and a hefty fine. However, the team quickly put that behind them with a dominant 4-1 victory over Gaziantep in the Turkish Cup, extending their unbeaten streak to 17 games across all competitions. Their confidence is further boosted by a stellar home record—30 points from 11 matches, tied for the league’s best alongside Galatasaray.

Antalyaspor Looks to Break the Streak

Antalyaspor arrives at this encounter with a solid run of form, having avoided defeat in their last five league matches. Their recent 2-1 win over Kasimpasa showcased their efficiency in front of goal, but a midweek cup loss to Besiktas ended their momentum. Despite their resilience, history is not on their side—Fenerbahce has remained unbeaten in their last 11 meetings, with Antalyaspor’s last victory at Sukru Saracoglu dating back to 2019.

Injury Concerns for Both Sides

Fenerbahce will have to manage without Diego Carlos, Jayden Oosterwolde, and Rodrigo Becao, all sidelined due to injuries. Meanwhile, Antalyaspor faces significant absences, with Jakub Kaluzinski suspended and Bahadir Ozturk, Erdogan Yesilyurt, and Emre Uzun ruled out for the season due to long-term injuries.

With the title race and European spots on the line, this clash promises intensity and high stakes. Can Fenerbahce maintain their dominance, or will Antalyaspor pull off an upset?
