Fenerbahce will be looking to keep their slim title dream alive when they play host to Kayserispor at the Sukru Saracoglu Stadium on Sunday. Ismail Kartal’s men currently sit six points behind first-placed Galatasaray in the Super Lig table heading into the final three games of the season.
Fenerbahce were left spitting feathers in their title push as they played out a disappointing goalless draw with Konyasopr at the Konya Büyükşehir Arena last Monday.
While Kartal’s men have now gone 24 consecutive Super Lig games without defeat, they have dropped four points in their last three matches, claiming one win and two draws in that time.
This slump in form has seen Galatasaray open up a six-point lead at the top of the table, with Fenerbahce hoping for a miracle heading into the final three games.
Meanwhile, Aylton Boa Morte came up clutch for Kayserispor as he netted a 64th-minute equaliser to hand them a vital 2-2 draw against Fatih Karagumruk last time out.
This followed a 2-1 victory against Pendikspor at the Pendik Stadium on April 28 which saw their six-game winless run come to an end.
With 41 points from 35 matches, Kayserispor are currently 13th in the Super Lig table, six points above the relegation zone.
