Fenerbahce take on Konyaspor at the Konya Buyuksehir Stadium on Saturday.

The game is scheduled for kick-of at 17:00 GMT and will be broadcasted on beIN Sports HD.

The match will go ahead as planned despite most major European leagues suspending action following the coronavirus outbreak.

Super Lig games will go ahead as planned, the only difference being all matches will be played behind closed doors.

Fenerbahce head into the clash having pretty much dropped out of the title race after winning won just one of their last six games.

European competition football will be on the line if the Yellow-Navies do not finish inside the top four.

Fenerbahce are currently 7th in the league a whopping nine points off a top-four spot – which is required to qualify for European football next season.

The Yellow Canaries head into the game missing four players through suspension; Serdar Aziz, Ozan Tufan, goalkeeper Altay Bayindir and Tolgay Arslan.

Fenerbahce have not been in the best of form but Konyaspor have been dreadful failing to win any of their last seven games and winning just one of their last 18 games.

The home side have dropped into the relegation zone as a result of their poor form.

Fenerbahce are currently without a manager after Ersun Yanal resigned. The team has been in disarray but with club veterans Emre Belozoglu and Volkan Demirel at the helm they did manage to win last week.

The visitors have become a risky side to back but going on just how poor Konyaspor have been and the bounce Fenerbahce received from the managerial changes I do fancy them to at least avoid defeat which actually offers pretty decent value.

Prediction: Fenerbahce Draw No Bet
