Fenerbahce extended their winning run to three games across all competitions on Tuesday night courtesy of putting three goals past Sivasspor without reply in the Turkish Sup. Second-half efforts from Ferdi Kardioglu, Michy Batshuayi and Joshua King helped the Yellow Canaries go through to the final of the cup competition where they will face Istanbul Basaksehir next month. Meanwhile, when it comes to the Turkish Super Lig, the Beacon of Light have plenty of work to do in order to win their first league-title since 2014. Jorge Jesus’s men are trailing the leaders Galatasaray by five points with three games remaining. The Legend are undefeated in their last eight top flight matches, recording six wins in the process and their latest league-success came against Hatayspor (3-0) last Sunday. Fenerbahace’s home-form in the league hasn’t been very great this term, having taken 35 points from a possible 48, while they have the best away-record, with 12 wins from 17 top flight games on the road.
Antalyaspor, on the other hand, have won only three of their 16 league-games on the road this season. The Scorpions are heading into the match on the back of just one win from their last five outings, while losing two games in the period. Nuri Sahin’s men have won 10 Turkish Super Lig games this term and their last success came against Karagumruk towards the end of April, thanks to Dogukan Sinik’s lone goal in the first-half. Antalyaspor are already assured of safety, having secured a 13 point lead over 18th-placed Gaziantep FK 13, with three games remaining.
