Fenerbahce will begin their Turkish Super Lig campaign when they host Demirspor at Ulker Stadium Sukru Saracoglu on Saturday (August 10th). The hosts are coming into the game on the back of a 2-1 defeat away to Lille in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League qualification tie in midweek.
They went behind to Jayden Oosterwolde's 12th-minute strike before Irfan Can Kahveci drew the game level in the 80th minute. Edon Zhegrova scored the match-winner for Lille in injury time.
They will now turn their attention to the domestic scene and will be aiming to build on their runners-up finish last term.
Adana Demirspor, meanwhile, shared the spoils in a 2-2 draw against Sunqavit in a pre-season friendly last month. Their last league game saw them suffer a 6-2 defeat at home to Basaksehir to end the last campaign in 12th spot.
