In the 6th week of the Trendyol Süper Lig, Fenerbahçe will face Eyüpspor at home. The match, which will be played on Sunday, September 20, at 17:00, will be officiated by referee Kadir Sağlam. Sağlam will be assisted by Mehmet Salih Mazlum and Kerem İlitangil.
The Yellow-Navies are preparing for this match with the goal of a turnaround following their recent results. Fenerbahçe has been unable to secure a win in its last 3 matches; they were defeated 2-1 by Beşiktaş and drew 1-1 with Roma and 0-0 with Gaziantep FK.
Fenerbahçe aims to end its 3-match winless streak by defeating Eyüpspor. In the history of the two teams in the Süper Lig, the Yellow-Navies have never been defeated. Fenerbahçe has won 2 of the 4 league matches played against Eyüpspor, while 2 matches ended in a draw.
Marco Asensio, who has recovered from his injury, is expected to be included in the match squad for Fenerbahçe. In a previous statement from the club, it was noted that the Spanish footballer would participate in parts of the training sessions with the team on September 17 and 18, and would fully participate in team training on September 19.
If head coach İsmail Kartal gives him the nod, Asensio will return to the pitch in the Eyüpspor match. The only missing player for the Yellow-Navies before the match is Mert Müldür. The national footballer, who was injured during training and diagnosed with a meniscus tear, will not be in the squad for the Eyüpspor match.
