Fenerbahce vs Lille Prediction & Betting Tips (13 August)

Champions of Turkey for the last time in 2014, Fenerbahce continues to finish in 2nd place in the championship over the last decade. Runner-up to Galatasaray in 2024, 2023, Trabzonspor in 2022, Galatasaray in 2018, it's the same refrain for years for Fenerbahce, now coached by José Mourinho, who will have the difficult task of bringing the club back to the Champions League and win the championship. As we speak, the 2nd possibility is a little more possible in less facts. A running-in Fenerbahce, mentally beaten in the first half, lost on the Hainaut field with a score of 2 goals to 1. As a reminder, the away goal has not counted as a double in the Champions League for several years. A draw in Türkiye will qualify LOSC. The championship resumes this weekend for Mourinho's Fenerbahce with a home game against Adana. The first leg - relocated to Valenciennes due to the Olympics - allowed LOSC to take the advantage before this trip to the Ulker Fenerbahce Sukru Saracoglu Stadium.

A 2-to-1 success which allows LOSC players to be virtually qualified before the match kicks off. To get back to the facts of the match. On a very good overflow from T.Santos on the right wing, Jayden Oosterwolde scored an unfortunate own goal 12', 1-0. LOSC dominated the 2nd half without finding the ability to double the lead. Fenerbahce, for their part, accelerated their return from the locker room, which was rewarded by this goal from a free kick from Can Kahveci 79', 1-1. In added time of the game, Edon Zhegrova entered the game, made the difference following an overflow on the right side and a clear left-footed shot 91', 2-1.

Already withdrawn last week, the former Marseillais Ünder (9 goals in the league last season, withdrawal for the Euro due to injury) will not be fit, like midfielder Fred, and long-term absentee Luan Peres (ex-OM ), just like Ryan Kent the ex-G.Rangers nugget, Joao Pedro, or even Emre Mor. Still as decisive despite the weight of the years, veteran Dzeko (21 goals, 3 assists) started strong with 4 goals scored in the previous round including a hat-trick in the first leg against Lugano. Mourinho plays most of his time in 4-3-3, he started in the first leg, but given the very good match of En-Nesyri, the Portuguese technician's plans could evolve. Losc took advantage of this summer transfer window to downsize its squad a little. Thus, Yacizi (free), the little used Cavaleiro (free) and the placard Adam Ounas (free) therefore left the North of France at the will of LOSC. However, the departure of Lenny Yoro (62,000,000th) is above all a financial boon.

In the opposite direction, the young midfielder Mukau (FC Mechelen), the full-back Thomas Meunier (Trabzonspor), the Algerian international Aissa Mandi, and the quite promising Ethan Mbappé (PSG) arrived at the club. In addition to this, Virginius (Clermont) and Bayo (Le Havre) returned from their respective loans. The 2nd came into play against Fenerbahce. Although they are undoubtedly attracting envy after their successful season last year, Canadian center forward David (19 goals) and Kosovar Zhegrova (6 goals, 6 assists) are still there, but for how long? Affected by heart problems in recent months, the excellent midfielder Bentaleb risks no longer being able to continue his career. Also missing are the long-term injured Umtiti and Bouaddi, and the important Ismaily. Already often dismissed last year, Miramon and Fernandes were not included on the UEFA list.
