Istanbul Basaksehir vs Fenerbahce Prediction and Betting Tips | December 6th 2025

Istanbul Basaksehir will host Fenerbahce at the Basaksehir Fatih Terim Stadium on Saturday in the 15th round of the 2025-26 Turkish Super Lig campaign. The home side have endured a difficult season and have work to do if they are to secure back-to-back appearances on the continental stage as they sit ninth in the table with 16 points.

After suffering back-to-back defeats, Basaksehir travelled to the Recep Tayyip Erdogan Stadium intent on reversing their fortunes, and they accomplished exactly that against Kasimpasa. Goals from Abbosbek Fayzullaev and Amine Harit handed them a two-goal lead at the break before Roma loanee Eldor Shomurodov got in on the act late in the day to secure a 3-1 victory for the Grey Owls.

Fenerbahce, having rediscovered their rhythm in recent matches, entered Monday’s Intercontinental Derby against arch-rivals Galatasaray as slight favorites. They, however, looked on the verge of a crushing home defeat after conceding in the first half before substitute Jhon Duran headed home a 95th-minute equalizer to make it 1-1 and send the Fener fans into raptures.

The visitors remain second in the table with 32 points, but could finish the round atop the pile with maximum points on Saturday.

Istanbul Basaksehir vs Fenerbahce Prediction

Boz Baykuşlar will be buoyed by their latest result when they return to action this weekend. They have, however, won just one of their last eight home matches across all competitions and will have it all to do if they are to secure a result on Saturday.

Sarı Kanaryalar, meanwhile, are undefeated in their last 12 games, picking up eight wins in that period. They have had the upper hand in this fixture in recent games and should come away with all three points here as well.

Prediction: Istanbul Basaksehir 1-2 Fenerbahce
