Fenerbahce is likely to relapse into the old days in the New Year. The rising performance curve was overshadowed by negative results. In addition to the first leg defeat in the Turkish Cup, there was a bitter last-minute draw against Bursaspor last matchday. Only a few days after the away game in Bursa is now the return match in the “Türkiye Kupasi” on. Ersun Yanal was able to bring his team on the back burner, after the recent results, the moral but slipped back into the basement. At home, Fenerbahce have to score a clear victory over the second division side to reach the next round in the cup. Will Fenerbahce pay off against Ümraniyespor?
Football Betting Tips Fenerbahce vs Ümraniyespor
In the previous Fenerbahce concept, the lack of opportunity was a factor that recently led to the loss of points. Even in the league match against Bursaspor Fenerbahce would have to extend the lead and prevent the last-minute balance. With persistent negative results, the situation with the “canaries” worsen all the more. In the current circumstances, a transfer for the traditional club would actually be mandatory, but this is still waiting in vain. When and where the traditional club will finally strike, is still in the stars. With the current squad, it is only once the eighth finals in the “Türkiye Kupasi” to exist. If Fenerbahce against Ümraniyespor a forecast in favor of the traditional club is not true, the criticism of the new club president could be louder. On Thursday evening the match will be at 18:30 in Istanbul!
Fenerbahce – Statistics & Current Form
Fenerbahce have been relegated despite a draw on the final day of the match – but that was also the only positive thing they could do on the last match day. Again, the lack of opportunity utilization caused important points were left. Fenerbahce is still lagging behind expectations and barely gets a foothold this season. The “canaries” could also gamble the last hope for a Europa League start right, in which they retire early in the Turkish Cup. Fenerbahce are reliant on a clear win at home with a 1-0 defeat in the first leg. There is no room for error, especially since Yanal has won only once (cup match against Giresunspor). Somehow the “canaries” do not make it to the finish line. In view of the recent results, Fenerbahce Vs. Ümraniyespor certainly a prognosis to be surprised, to what extent the traditional club but can afford to be played in front of home crowd remains rather questionable. Yanal will send his best team to the field – despite the fact that Fenerbahce has been in the league recently. Already on the weekend it is back on full speed. The home game against third-placed Yeni Malatyaspor stands for the traditional club from Istanbul.
After the suspension of Slimani Soldado has been forcibly preferred. The Spaniard has convinced with his performance against Bursa and could deny this with a sensational goal. Also in the cup Yanal will probably rely on Soldado. From the beginning Fenerbahce will exert pressure and target the early leadership. A goal at the beginning of the home game would be fatal for the “canaries”. Ekici had injured in the last game and could miss the cup game. His position is expected to take Valbuena or Benzia. However, Yanal will not make any major changes in the starting lineup. The “canaries” are in dire need of victory in the current circumstances. Is Fenerbahce against Ümraniyespor a bet on the Yanal-Elf?
Expected formation of Fenerbahce:
Demirel; Kaldirim, Ciftpinar, Skrtel, Isla; Jailson, Topal; Benzia, Valbuena, Dirar; Soldado

Ümraniyespor – Statistics & Current Form
Ahmet Tasyürek was able to make the surprise in the Pokal play perfect and land against the decimated “canaries” a 1-0 home win. Even though the home game had to be relocated to another stadium due to the lack of floodlights, Ümraniyespor presented itself as self-confidently as in its own games in front of a home crowd. There was no trace of a foreign terrain. The team of Tasyürek was able to hold well, especially keeper Ogür showed a brilliant performance. However, Ümraniye was unable to build on the strong game against Fenerbahce last weekend. In a clash in the second half against Altay fell five hits. Against the table fourteenth Ümraniye had to take a bitter slap and also also cope with the dismissal of Appindangoye. The 26-year-old Gabonese Appindangoye will miss the cup match against Fenerbahce and represents a significant loss in their own defensive dar. In the manageable squad to replace the deficit of the central defender is not easy for Tasyürek.
Away has not presented Ümraniyespor in the season so bad. In contrast to the previous season, there were even relatively solid performances. In the second leg Tasyürek would certainly want to build on his strong defensive. With the failure of Appindangoye the Ümraniye coach but missing a performer in the back row. Forcibly, Ümraniyespor will therefore have to change. Even a single strike at Fenerbahce would greatly improve the situation of Ümraniyespor. With this, the traditional club would have to give the second division three goals to make it to the next round. Before the cup match Tasyürek had still sprayed optimism that his team would be quite able to surprise the top club from Istanbul. Now it could be time – and that although no one had previously dared to tip in favor of the guests at Fenerbahce against Ümraniyespor.
Expected formation of Ümraniyespor:
Öğür; Boubacar, Acil, Tekdal, Okumus; Temeltas, Göksu; Altintas, Madinda, Cicek; Leandrinho
