Gaziantep FK vs Fenerbahce : 12 wins on the spin for the visitors, seven points for the hosts 
Gaziantep FK – Fenerbahce : the bogey team rolls into the south
Twelve straight wins in all competitions. The recent history between Fenerbahce and Gaziantep is no longer just an edge, it is a full-on battering ram. To kick off Super Lig round five on Monday, September 14 at 19:00 (Paris time), the Istanbul giants head to Gaziantep Stadyumu full of confidence.
The key points from the clash:
-
A one-sided run: Across their last three meetings, the Istanbul side have hit 12 goals and conceded just one. They will fancy doing it again.
-
Gaziantep keep hanging on: For all that miserable history, the hosts have still picked up a decent seven points early in the season. Enough to spark a shock and break the spell?
-
Keep it under control: Fenerbahce have to do the job cleanly if they are not to lose touch with the front-runners, while Gaziantep can play with nothing to lose against their designated tormentors.
The table tells a slightly different story: Gaziantep have seven points after four rounds, Fenerbahce have only six, and it is the visitors who sit ninth.
The Istanbul club arrive amid a messy backdrop, three days after their 1-1 draw with AS Roma in the Champions League and Ismail Kartal’s announced resignation in a press conference.
President Aziz Yildirim quickly insisted the coach would stay in charge, even though Dirk Kuyt had been tipped as caretaker. That uncertainty is the real talking point of the night.
Gaziantep’s last win in this matchup came in 2021. Since then, none of the official meetings have gone their way.
The home record is even uglier: seven straight defeats at home to the same opponent in all competitions.
Fenerbahce’s last two visits to this ground brought eight goals for the Istanbul side.
Only one point separates the two teams in the standings, which makes the hierarchy look a lot less clear-cut than the head-to-head record suggests.
Gaziantep FK, two wins earned away from home 
Gaziantep have taken seven points from their first four games, a better return than the side they face tonight.
Orhan Ak’s men have opened with a 1-1 draw against Alanyaspor, a 1-0 win at Eyupspor, a 2-1 defeat to Rizespor, then a 4-2 victory at Goztepe.
That trip to Izmir produced their sharpest attacking display of the season, with four goals and several different names on the scoresheet.
Halil Dervisoglu struck in the fifth minute, Myenty Abena doubled the lead five minutes later, then Kacper Kozlowski hit a first-half brace to make it 4-0 at the break.
The issue for the Falcons lies elsewhere: both of their wins have come away from home, while their two home games have yielded just a draw and a defeat.
Ali Kalin, Sontje Hansen, Nazim Sangare and Fuat Bavuk remain out. Juninho Bacuna is back from suspension and adds another option in midfield.
The oddity of their season so far is simple enough: they win on the road and stumble in front of their own fans.
Orhan Ak should stick with the same winning core from Izmir, with Kacper Tobiasz in goal and a back line built around Luis Perez, Arda Kizildag and Myenty Abena.
Up front, Kozlowski and Alexandru Maxim are expected to support Dervisoglu, with Bacuna another midfield option.
The 4-2 at Goztepe was built in the opening half-hour, proof they can hurt teams quickly once space opens up.
That could bother an Istanbul side that has had only three days to recover from its European trip.
But that was away from home, in a game where the Falcons were happy to sit back and let the opposition have the ball.
Try it for $0.99.
Fenerbahce, two defeats in four rounds and a bench under pressure 
If the history is all Fenerbahce, with 12 straight wins against Gaziantep, the Super Lig start has been much shakier. Already beaten twice in their first four matches, the Istanbul club go on the road on Monday at 19:00 (Paris time) needing a result, no excuses.
What matters here:
-
A clunky start: They were beaten 2-1 away to Genclerbirligi on opening day, then took a 4-2 hiding against Konyaspor. A chaotic, un-Fenerbahce-like beginning for a squad built to chase the title.
-
The response at Samsunspor: The 2-0 win in Samsun calmed the waters, but the margin for error has already shrunk to next to nothing.
-
No more slip-ups: Even with that dominant record against Gaziantep, Fenerbahce can not afford to blink, not with the leaders ready to pull away.
Last weekend’s Istanbul derby ended in a 2-1 defeat to Besiktas in front of their own fans.
Their Champions League opener against AS Roma on Thursday finished 1-1, followed by Kartal’s very public exit a few minutes later.
In terms of personnel, Marco Asensio is nursing a muscle issue, Jayden Oosterwolde is out with an Achilles tendon injury and Mert Hakan Yandas is suspended.
The staff are also managing minutes for several senior players after the European tie. Ederson should stay in goal, with N’Golo Kante and Matteo Guendouzi doing the dirty work in midfield and Vedat Muriqi up top.
The all-competitions picture is a bit kinder: Fenerbahce held Lyon to a 1-1 draw before beating them 2-1 in the return leg.
Across their last six official matches, the record shows three wins, two draws and just one defeat, that derby loss.
So the issue is not so much the quality, it is the inconsistency, and the noise around the bench will not make that any easier to fix.
Vedat Muriqi should lead the line, flanked by Mason Greenwood and Kerem Akturkoglu.
The midfield muscle, with Kante and Guendouzi paired in the engine room, is still the clearest advantage the visitors have on a trip like this.
It was also the platform for the 2-0 win at Samsunspor, their only successful league away day so far.
Compo probable Gaziantep FK : Tobiasz ; Perez, Kizildag, Abena ; Meleke, Gidado, Calhanoglu, Sorescu ; Kozlowski, Maxim ; Dervisoglu
Compo probable Fenerbahce : Ederson ; Muldur, Skriniar, Ake, Brown ; Guendouzi, Kante ; Greenwood, Yuksek, Akturkoglu ; Muriqi
Pronostic Football Gaziantep FK vs Fenerbahce
Notre pronostic : Victoire de Fenerbahce
Twelve straight wins in this fixture, including eight goals across the last two visits to Gaziantep Stadyumu: the balance has not shifted since 2021.
Gaziantep are still waiting for a home win this season and have now lost seven in a row at home against this opponent.
The chaos around the Istanbul bench makes this a less comfortable night than usual, but the gap in individual quality should settle it: Fenerbahce leave with the three points.
The planned rotation after the European match is the hosts’ main angle against this Fenerbahce side.
None of the first four league games saw Gaziantep win at home: a point against Alanyaspor, a defeat to Rizespor.

First, a word on our free tips
- What we publish on mathodds is analysis, nothing more. We offer an opinion, a read on the moment, but never a guarantee. Sport is still sport: unpredictable. A red card, an injury, a goal from nowhere… and the script changes completely.
- Let us be clear: there is no such thing as a risk-free bet. Even when something looks “obvious”, nothing really is. And yes, that means you can lose. In fact, at some point, you will.
- The smart move is to stay sensible. Bet small, set a budget and stick to it. Do not touch money you need to live. And above all, do not chase losses; it rarely ends well.
- A bet should stay a game, not a job or a source of income. If it starts taking too much space in your day, if it winds you up or puts you under pressure, take a break. And if you need to, speak to a specialist support service. That is what it is there for.
- In the end, the responsibility is yours. Reading our content means accepting that risk exists and will never disappear, even with the best analysis in the world.
- Important reminder: betting is forbidden for minors and must follow the law in your country. Gambling can spiral fast, with money problems, family tension and addiction. Need Help? Call 1-800-GAMBLER. In the UK? Visit https://www.gambleaware.org/https://www.gambleaware.org/.
No commitment from us
Our tips are not a contract. They carry no legal force. In plain terms: you can not use them to claim anything if a bet goes wrong.
Information changes
A tip is always based on what we know when it is written. But after that, a team sheet changes (like Fenerbahce’s in this case), a player gets injured, the weather turns nasty… and the analysis can quickly be out of date. We can not be held responsible for that.
Your role
Before betting, simply check that it is legal where you are. If it is not, that is your responsibility, not ours.
Responsible gambling first
