Fenerbahce Team News

Fenerbahce was the second-placed team in the Turkish League last season, with eight points less than Galatasaray. Given that Fener’s ambitions are always the title, the club brought in many new players, of which Dusan Tadic from Ajax and Edin Dzeko from Inter (after a loan in Roma) stand out. If we add the Polish footballer Sebastian Szymanski from Feyenoord to them, it is clear that Fener is one of the main favorites for the title.

During the break, Fenerbahce played in the PARI Cup together with Zenit, Crvena Zvezda, and Neftchi Baku, where they recorded a defeat against the Serbian champions, a victory over Neftchi, and a draw against the tournament host, Zenit.

The Turkish team showed its quality already in the previous round of qualifications for the Conference League when they demolished Zimbra of Moldova twice. The result of the first match played in Istanbul was 5:0, while the game in Moldova ended 0:4.

Maribor Team News

Maribor finished the Slovenian Championship in third place, behind Olimpija and Celje, which is a devastating result for a club of their reputation. Consequently, the UEFA Conference League qualifications started from the first round.

Their opponent in that double match was the Maltese Birkirkara, and everyone expected a routine pass by the Slovenian team. However, after a surprising 1:1 draw on their home field, Maribor won away (1:2) after a turnaround and the fact that they were one goal behind in the 80th minute.

Maribor did not excel in the second round against Differdange either. In the first match played in Luxembourg, the guests reached a draw with a goal in the sixth minute of stoppage time, and in the second leg, Maribor struggled to get 3:3, and the match went into overtime. Josip Ilicic scored a goal in the 120th minute from the penalty spot for the home team, and from everything seen, it is clear that Maribor’s form is far below desired.

Fenerbahce vs Maribor Prediction

With the arrival of Dzeko and Tadic, Fenerbahce drastically improved their game, which was also seen in the duel with Zimbru. On the other hand, Maribor had great difficulties against the teams from Malta and Luxembourg, and they reached the third round of the Conference League qualification with a lot of luck. For these reasons, we give Fener the favorite role, and we expect a convincing victory, which would further boost their confidence before the first round of the Turkish championship, played this weekend.
