Before the championship race starts again in Turkey, the round of 16 matches in the Turkish cup competition are scheduled for the week. So far, the “Türkiye Kupasi” has offered us a few surprises, but all the favorite favorites are still represented in the cup. On Tuesday evening Fenerbahce contested the first leg against Kayserispor, the bottom of the Süper Lig.
Kayserispor vs Fenerbahce Free Betting Tips
The yellow-red from Kayseri are expected to be traded as outsiders by bookmakers. For a home win of Kayserispor against Fenerbahce currently odds of 6.45. In the first half of the Süper Lig, Kayseri surprisingly prevailed against Fenerbahce. Are the Anatolian kickers also lucky in the cup?
For financial reasons, some changes were made to the bottom of the table before the winter break. In order to provide relief from a financial point of view, the club separated from numerous legionaries. However, reinforcement largely failed to materialize. With Robert Prosinecki, Kayserispor got at least the candidate for the vacant coaching position.
It remains to be seen how the worst first-round team will present themselves in the first competitive game of the new year. Our Kayserispor vs Fenerbahce prediction aims at an away win of the canaries.
Kayserispor – statistics & current form
Kayserispor wants to emerge from the crisis in the new year and fix the relegation in the Süper Lig. To what extent the goals of the troubled Anatolian club can be achieved remains rather uncertain, especially since the yellow-red have played a catastrophic first half so far. Kayserispor has changed club president three times this season and wanted to initiate a change.
There was also the fifth coaching change of the current season during the winter break. Robert Prosinecki is now practice leader at the bottom of the Süper Lig. With the current squad, the second half of the season does not look rosy for the Croatian head coach. According to media reports, the yellow-red want to strengthen in this transfer window.
Many top performers said goodbye to the team with contract termination at the end of the year. If newcomers fail to appear, it will be difficult to maintain the league with the current contingent.
In the last game of the first half of the season, Kayserispor received a bitter 2: 6 swatter at the Black Sea club from Trabzon. A total of 42 goals were conceded in the 17 games of the first half of the season – the worst figure in the Süper Lig for over ten years. Kayserispor only won two games in the first half of the league season.
Ironically, one of the two victories was recorded against Fenerbahce. If it works again, a tip on the home team will be paid lucratively at Kayserispor against Fenerbahce. The yellow-red will not be underestimated this year under the new coach and with the “new” team, which is why an outsider bet is not really recommended in this case.
Probable lineups of Kayserispor:
➠ Cipe – Subasi, Kula, Cötür, Civelek – Dja Djedje, Mensah – Alkurt, Mensah, Uzun – Kravets

Fenerbahce – statistics & current form
Last season, Fenerbahce was among the worst three teams in the Süper Lig after a catastrophic first half of the season. Since then, the canaries have regained their strength and have returned to the title race this season. Fenerbahce finished fourth in the table with 31 points.
This means that the canaries are six points behind leaders Sivasspor. For the start of the second half of the season, there will be two top games for Fenerbahce in the next three Süper Lig games. The Turkish Cup is rather secondary under the current circumstances. Nevertheless, it can be assumed that Ersun Yanal will send his best squad into the cup game.
The Süper Lig is undoubtedly a top priority. Fenerbahce has not won the championship since the 2013/14 season. Considering how weak the title competition has been so far, Fenerbahce’s title win this season cannot be ruled out. In the first half of the Süper Lig, the defensive of the canaries was undoubtedly a major construction site.
In the current transfer window, there has only been one reinforcement with Simon Falette (Frankfurt). Further transfer activities of the canaries cannot be ruled out in the meantime. A newcomer is still to be expected, especially in the left-back position.
So far, Fenerbahce’s offensive has been a decisive factor under head coach Ersun Yanal. The strong goalscoring of the canaries (34) was only surpassed by Sivasspor (35) and Trabzonspor (35) in the first half of the season. Vedat Muriqi and Max Kruse played a large part in this with a total of 21 scorer points.
The best line-up of canaries is expected on Tuesday evening. Kaldirim, Zajc and Moses are still healing injuries and are not available. The long-term injured Ciftpinar is also still missing.
Probable lineup of Fenerbahce:
➠ Bayindir – Dirar, Jailson, Falette, Saglam – Tufan, Gustavo – Cigerci, Kruse, Türüc – Muriqi

Kayserispor is one of the hot relegation candidates of this year’s Süper Lig season. Meanwhile, the yellow-red are struggling with financial problems and have not really found an adequate replacement for the winter exits.
