Feyenoord vs Fenerbahce

Feyenoord will be looking to claim the first-leg advantage when they host Fenerbahce in the third round of the UEFA Champions League qualifiers.

The Dutch side have been off colour in preseason as they struggle to find their best form. Meanwhile, the Turks are looking solid at the moment and can do enough to avoid defeat in the away leg of the tie.

Feyenoord News

Feyenoord drew a bye in the previous round and are making their first appearance in the qualifiers. They are regular campaigners in European competitions and reached the knockout stage of last season’s Champions League.

However, Feyenoord have looked off colour in preseason and are winless in four of their last five matches. Robin Van Persie’s team did claim a 4-0 victory at Wolfsburg in their previous fixture and will be keen to channel that performance on Wednesday.

Feyenoord have shown some attacking quality lately, scoring in five of their last six matches across all competitions. However, they have also conceded in five fixtures on this run, while four of those matches have produced over 2.5 goals.

Fenerbahce News

Fenerbahce are also experienced campaigners in Europe, although their last appearance in the group stage of the Champions League was in the 2008-09 season. They played in the Europa League last term, reaching the round of 16.

The Turks will be keen to reach the main competition this year and have been in good form in preseason. They have won four of their last five matches, claiming a 1-0 victory over Serie A side Lazio in their previous fixture.

Fenerbahce often show some attacking quality and have scored in their last nine matches across all competitions. Seven of those fixtures have produced over 2.5 goals, while Jose Mourinho’s team have failed to keep clean sheets six times on this run.

Head to Head

Fenerbahce have claimed two wins and a draw in the last three matches against Feyenoord. That draw came in the last meeting, with both teams battling to a 3-3 scoreline in a friendly in 2018.

Verdict

Feyenoord v Fenerbahce

Feyenoord and Fenerbahce often look solid going forward, and both teams could be backed to score on Wednesday. Four of the Dutch side’s last six matches have produced over 2.5 goals, which is likely to be the outcome in this one.

Fenerbahce have looked sharp lately, and given their recent record in this fixture, they can earn a win or draw here.
