Sivasspor will host Fenerbahce at the Yeni Sivas 4 Eylul Stadyumu on Sunday in another round of the 2024-25 Turkish Super Lig campaign. The home side have picked up crucial points in recent games after a difficult start to the year and are slowly clawing their way out of the drop zone as they head into the final seven games of the season.
They picked up a good point in their 1-1 draw against Rizespor last time out, falling behind in the 70th minute before substitute Veljko Simic netted a late leveler for Yiğidolar. The hosts now sit 16th in the league table and could exit the relegation spots with an unlikely win this weekend.
Fenerbahce, meanwhile, have refused to let up in their pursuit of the Super Lig title and are now within touching distance of league leaders Galatasaray. They picked up a brilliant 4-1 comeback win over Trabzonspor in their last match, finding themselves a goal down at the break before Anderson Talisca came off the bench to score a spectacular hat-trick and help secure the points for Jose Mourinho's men.
The visitors, who are sat in second place, are now just three points behind rivals Galatasaray and will be looking to make up that ground with flawless performances in the final weeks of the season.
