Trabzonspor will entertain league leaders Fenerbahce at Medical Park Stadyumu in the Turkish Super Lig on Saturday.
The two teams will be resuming their league campaign with this game, though both took part in the Turkish Cup fifth round earlier this week. The hosts recorded a 3-0 win over Samsunspor, while Michi Batshuayi's brace helped Fenerbahce defeat Istanbulspor 3-1.
Trabzonspor are undefeated in their last seven matches in the Super Lig, playing out a 1-1 draw against Ankaraguku last time around. Fenerbahce fell to a 2-1 defeat against Giresunspor in their previous outing, which was just their second defeat of the season for the league leaders.
The hosts played three friendlies in the international break, playing out draws in each of those games. Fenerbahce, on the other hand, won their four friendlies and also maintained that winning form in the Turkish Cup.

Trabzonspor are unbeaten at home this season and are expected to continue that form in this match. Fenerbahce have won their last four away games but are winless in their last two meetings against Karadeniz Fırtınası.
They have picked up just one win in their last five away games at Trabzonspor and might struggle here. As the hosts have just one win in their last five league games, we expect the two teams to play out a draw.
