Two teams aiming to avoid further setbacks in their respective campaigns will clash on Sunday as Konyaspor host Fenerbahce at the Torku Arena.
The home side is perilously close to the relegation zone, just four points clear, while the visitors trail league leaders Galatasaray by eight points and need a win to maintain their title challenge.
We say: Konyaspor 1-2 Fenerbahce
Fenerbahce's superior firepower and pressing need to close the gap on Galatasaray should see them edge this clash, but Konyaspor's strong home record and defensive resilience could make this a closely contested affair, which is why we expect a narrow Fenerbahce victory.

After seeing their three-match unbeaten streak snapped by a narrow 2-1 defeat to Galatasaray, Goztepe SK will look to immediately rebound when they host Kasimpasa at the Gursel Aksel Stadium on Sunday.
The hosts, one of the standout teams of the season in the Turkish Super Lig, have been nearly invincible at home, while Kasimpasa have shown resilience on the road, setting the stage for an intriguing battle in Izmir.
We say: Goztepe SK 2-1 Kasimpasa
Goztepe's imperious home form makes them favorites to secure victory in this one, though Kasimpasa's unbeaten away streak adds intrigue, we expect the hosts to earn a positive result here due to home support.
