Istanbul Basaksehir have their sights set on a European football spot this season. However, they need to start acting fast if they are to have any chance of securing a top-four finish in the Turkish Super Lig standings. They have four games remaining and are sitting in fifth place with 51 points to their name. Four points separate them from fourth-placed Besiktas.
The Grey Owls lived up to expectations in their recent league game against Hatayspor. They picked up three points in a 4-2 away victory. This result was to compensate for their 4-1 defeat against Goztepe.
The Başakşehir Fatih Terim Stadyumu has seen Çağdaş Atan's men secure comfortable wins over Gaziantep and Konyaspor. However, that's the tip of the iceberg for a team that has won five of their last seven home league games, indicating they'll be a tough opponent to overcome.
Istanbul Basaksehir: Team News
Istanbul Basaksehir have no fresh injury news to report on at the moment. However, Onur Ergun remains in the injury room nursing a broken ankle. So far, he has missed 11 games for the club.
Head coach Çağdaş Atan was impressed with his team's performance against Hatayspor last time out and is unlikely to make any changes to the starting lineup. Atan will deploy the same 4-3-3 formation, and Krzysztof Piatek is expected to lead the attack.
🔖 Probable Starting XI (4-3-3): Sengezer; Sahiner, Opoku, Duarte, Operi; Crespo, Ozdemir, Kemen; Sari, Piatek, Turuc
⛔️ Out: Onur Ergun (broken ankle)
👤 Head coach: Çağdaş Atan

Fenerbahce, on the other hand, are still in contention for the league title with four games remaining. However, looking at the current situation with a conscious mind, a second place is a realistic finish for the Istanbul giants this season.
The Yellow Canaries saw their hopes of winning the league title suffer a huge blow last time out against Besiktas last Sunday. Gedson Fernandes' strike in the 44th minute was enough to see Jose Mourinho's side lose 1-0 at home. This means they are now eight points behind the reigning champions, Galatasaray, in first place.
Only Besiktas has managed to snatch maximum points from the visitors when playing on the road this season. So far, they have suffered just one defeat in 16 league games (W11, D4).
Fenerbahce: Team News
Fenerbahce have suffered a critical blow in defense. Caglar Soyuncu won't be available this Friday because of accumulating too many yellow cards. Alexander Djiku is the obvious replacement for the Turkish Interantional. Djiku will join Mert Muldur and Milan Skriniar in a back three.
Filip Kostic has served his one-match suspension and is eligible to play. Bright Osayi-Samuel will have to sit this one out as Kostic retains his rightful place in the starting lineup.
On the injury front, there is no fresh injury news to report on other than the regular five that includes Mert Yandas (knock), Allan Saint-Maximin (injury), Rodrigo Becao (knee injury), Jayden Oosterwolde (knee injury), and Sofyan Amrabat (injury).
🔖 Probable Starting XI (3-4-1-2): Livakovic; Muldur, Skriniar, Djiku; Kostic, Yuksek, Fred, Aydin; Szymanski; Talisca, Dzeko
⛔️ Out: Caglar Soyuncu (suspended), Mert Yandas (knock), Allan Saint-Maximin (injury), Rodrigo Becao (knee injury), Jayden Oosterwolde (knee injury), Sofyan Amrabat (injury)
👤 Head coach: Jose Mourinho

Istanbul Basaksehir vs Fenerbahce match prediction 09 May 2025
Istanbul Basaksehir have turned the tide around in regards to their league performance. At some point, they were down in the dumps, winning just one of their last five games (D1, L3). They have been the masters of their own destiny heading into this clash, winning five of their last six. However, the question remains: can they beat Fenerbahce in this one for the first time since February 2022?
I don't think that is possible, seeing the hosts outsmart Fenerbahce. The visitors have had their own fair share of slip-ups, but their performance against Istanbul Basaksehir in this fixture has been very impressive. In the reverse fixture, they won 3-1 at home, and I can not see beyond a comfortable win for Jose Mourinho's men.
