Fenerbahce are also in great form domestically and are involved in a two horse title race with Super Lig leaders Galatasaray. The Yellow-Navy Blues have won their last three games in the league.

The Yellow Canaries cruised past the group stage of the Conference League winning four games and topping Group H.

Union SG, currently riding a five-game winning streak, will look to capitalize on their home advantage. However, their task won’t be easy as Fenerbahce have lost just once in their last 19 outings, showcasing their own impressive form.

Injury Updates:

Union SG: Defenders Kevin Mac Allister and Kevin Rodriguez remain unavailable. Midfielder Charles Vanhoutte returns from suspension but may not start.

Fenerbahce: Defenders Luan Peres and Alexander Djiku are back from suspension. Forwards Josh King and Irfan Can Kahveci are out injured.

Predicted Lineups:

Union SG: Moris; Sykes, Burgess, Machida; Terho, Rasmussen, Sadiki, Puertas, Castro-Montes; Amoura, Nilsson
Fenerbahce: Livakovic; Osayi-Samuel, Bonucci, Soyuncu, Kadioglu; Fred, Yuksek; Under, Szymanski, Tadic; Dzeko
This will be the first-ever meeting between these two sides, making it an intriguing encounter in the UECL.
