Fenerbahce vs Eyupspor Prediction, Match Preview and Probable Lineups | 17 May 2026
On 17 May 2026, Fenerbahce host Eyupspor at the Sukru Saracoglu Stadium in Round 34 of the Turkish Super Lig. The hosts have already secured 2nd place in the standings and cannot move higher or lower, while Eyupspor are close to mathematically securing survival. Let’s take a closer look at the potential outcome of this matchup.
Match Preview
Fenerbahce enter this match in solid form after back-to-back league victories. The team defeated Basaksehir 3-1 at home before comfortably beating Konyaspor 3-0 away in the previous round. Those results helped the hosts respond well after the disappointment of their defeat against Galatasaray in the title race and the Turkish Cup elimination against Konyaspor.
The team continue to deliver strong attacking performances, with five of their last six matches in all competitions finishing with over 2.5 goals.
Home form remains one of the strongest arguments in favor of the hosts. Fenerbahce are unbeaten in home league matches this Super Lig season, recording 11 wins and 5 draws. They are also unbeaten in their last six home matches, with four victories and two draws during that period.
Eyupspor also approach this fixture with positive recent momentum. The visitors are unbeaten in four consecutive league matches, collecting three wins and one draw. The team currently sit 13th in the table and are now very close to securing survival, holding a three-point advantage above the relegation zone.
At the same time, away performances remain a concern for Eyupspor. The team won only 3 of 16 away league matches this season and often struggle defensively on the road. However, recent games have become much more open, with over 2.5 goals scored in five of Eyupspor’s last six matches. The visitors also scored first in four of their last five league games.

Head to Head Statistics
Fenerbahce have completely dominated this matchup so far. The hosts are unbeaten in all previous meetings against Eyupspor, winning two of the last three encounters. The most recent meeting between the sides ended with a comfortable 3-0 victory for Fenerbahce earlier this season.
Prediction
This match no longer carries major tournament pressure for either side, which could create conditions for a more open game. However, Eyupspor still need at least one point to secure their safety without depending on other results, which should keep the visitors motivated throughout the match. Fenerbahce continue to play attacking football at home and regularly produce high-scoring matches, while Eyupspor have also shown improvement offensively in recent weeks despite their away inconsistencies. Considering the recent goal trends of both teams and the overall match situation, another open game with several scoring opportunities looks highly likely here. Recommended bet: Over 3 Goals
