With the international break behind us, the Super Lig returns in fine style this weekend with a clash of the heavyweights when Fenerbahce prepares to take on Besiktas at Ilker Stadyumu Fenerbahce Sukru Saracoglu Spor Kompleksi on Sunday afternoon. The hosts are currently in second place in the league with 54 points in 24 matches, six points behind Galatasaray, and five clear of their opponents in third. Fenerbahce won their last match 3-0 over Alanyaspor, which extended their recent unbeaten run to seven matches, including six wins and a draw. Their home record has also been very strong this season, with nine wins, one draw, and two losses on home soil. Fenerbahce has played one match less than the sides around them, so a win in this match will keep their title hopes firmly alive. 

Meanwhile, Besiktas is hot on the tails of their opponent on the league table, with just five points separating the two. Besiktas is four points better off than Adana Demispor in fourth. The visitors also won their last match by three goals to one against Istabulspor, which takes their unbeaten run to four matches, including three wins and a draw. However, their away form this season has been below their standard, with a record of five wins, four draws, and three losses in 12 matches on the road. Besiktas does have the better record in this fixture, unbeaten in the last six encounters with four draws and two wins, and they will see this as a must-win match to stay in contention for a top-two finish.
