Giresunspor vs Fenerbahce Prediction & Betting tips
In the Turkish Süper Lig the four Istanbul clubs Galatasaray, Basaksehir, Fenerbahce and Besiktas lead the table. In the quarter-finals of the Turkish Cup are still three of these clubs represented, but in the round of the last eight do not meet. This would allow all three Istanbul clubs to reach the semi-finals and underpin their supremacy in Turkish football. To counteract Giresunspor from the second Turkish league. Confident is this club, because in the second round Giresunspor has knocked out none other than Basaksehir and thus already burst the dream of an Istanbul club.
Giresunspor :
Until the short winter break, Giresunspor was largely satisfied with the season. After the first round, the club was in the 1st Lig, the second highest Turkish league, in fourth place, which entitled for promotion as a playoffs. The gap to front runner Ankaragücü was four points, the two teams just before two or one point. But after the winter break it was not yet round for Giresunspor. In the first competitive game of the new calendar year Giresunspor defeated at Basaksehir with 1: 2, and this defeat can even be considered a success. Because it was the second leg in the second round of Türkiye Kupasi. Since Giresunspor had won the first leg in the last calendar year with 3: 1, the club reached despite the bust of the next round.
But even in the 1st Lig there should be no victory in 2018. Against Boluspor Giresunspor defeated at home with 0: 2, at the weekend there was then only a 1-1 at Adanaspor. Although Giresunspor is still in fourth place, the direct promotion place two is now six points away. Already in the preseason failed Giresunspor in the promotion playoffs. The chance for the direct promotion is still there, but also has become a little smaller by the only one point from the last two games. At home Giresunspor comes to a record of five wins, two draws and three defeats, which means only eighth place in the home table.
Fenerbahce:
Fenerbahce also failed to beat Trabzonspor 1-1 in the Süper Lig this weekend, losing ground to leaders Basaksehir and Galatasaray, both of whom were able to win their matches. Currently Fenerbahce occupied in the Süper Lig only the third place, which would mean in the end only the Europa League qualification. But everything is still possible, because the gap to leaders Basaksehir is five points. Of all eighteen teams in the top Turkish league, Fenerbahce has suffered the fewest defeats. So far, the team in the Süper Lig had only beaten twice. The last defeat dates already from 29.09.2017. That was a 0: 1 at Akhisar Belediyespor. Fenerbahce have remained unbeaten in the ensuing and last twelve games in the Süper Lig since this failure – seven wins, five draws. There are also four successes in the Turkish Cup.

With a record of four wins, five draws and just the one mentioned defeat at Akhisar Belediyespor, Fenerbahce are at number one on the away table. With Giresunspor, Fener got involved in the Turkish Cup almost exactly two years ago. At that time, the favorite, but still in the group stage of the former mode, won 2-0 away and in the second leg at home with 6: 1.
