Fenerbahce is my favorite in the Turkish Cup but Basaksehir is a tight team this year. Both teams compete in the league, UEFA and cup. Fenerbahce is one step ahead in terms of squad revision. An enjoyable cup fight awaits us.

We can see surprising results in the Turkish Cup, something similar could happen this year as well. Sivasspor won last year, we have seen teams such as Akhisarspor and Kayserispor become champions before.
It is not easy to predict who will be the champion, but I have a feeling that Galatasaray will win this year. Fenerbahçe is playing very well too

[ingiltere]

There was a black and white two different halves. First half Beşiktaş started pretty good and found two goals, we thought they can keep this pace and score more but after that they could only find one more goal. Especially Redmond wasted clear chances. Especially in the second half, the team dropped out of the game. Players entered the mood of okay this match is over let's go home. They generously wasted very clear goal chances, made simple pass mistakes. Şenol Güneş put players on the field that must show their ability but I think a lot of them wasted this chance. I don't see them play in league games regularly with that attitude.
Serik Belediyespor is a very small club, they play in second division. They couldn't even attack whole game but their only position became a goal. That show how lacking Ersin still is. He's mentally out of here. Beşiktaş should fix this goalkeeper problem as soon as possible. They passed fourth round easily but this is not an achievement.

We don't usually see surprising results in the first rounds of the tournament because there is a big power difference between the teams. These rounds are an opportunity for small teams to show themselves on national channels. I wish Beşiktaş win this tournament, but I have doubts as to whether the team cares enough about this tournament because in a time when we have a busy match schedule, the order of importance of the tournament may not be the main agenda item...

5th Round draw is here:
Kasımpaşa   - Ümraniyespor
Başakşehir - Göztepe
Beşiktaş - Şanlıurfaspor
Konyaspor - Bodrumspor
Kayserispor - Gençlerbirliği
Fatih Karagümrük - Uşakspor
Fenerbahçe - İstanbulspor
Giresunspor - Karacabey Belediye Spor
Alanyaspor - Eyüpspor
Antalyaspor - Manisa FK
Adana Demirspor - Rizespor
Gaziantep FK - Boluspor
Sivasspor - Esenler Erokspor
Ankaragücü - Tuzlaspor
Trabzonspor - Samsunspor
Galatasaray - Ankara Keçiörengücü

The seeded teams drew good draws. There is no hard draw. Beşiktaş and Galatasaray's rivals are very weak, Fenerbahçe's rival is slightly better. But still these small teams cannot cope with the big ones. This round is unlikely to come as a surprise. Teams go to the last 16 and continue on their way. Big teams also want to win this trophy. I think that especially the teams falling behind in the league will give more importance to this cup.

Favorite teams won the Turkish Cup 4th Round matches. Antalyaspor maybe one of the surprise teams in the cup. Pendik match was easy for them but it was clear that they took the match seriously. Antalyaspor did not let the opposing team breathe and pulled the plug in the first half with attacks from the flanks. Despite being victorious in the match they did not break the game discipline. They were concentrated and they could be the team that will see the final in the cup.

The most important thing in this cup is that the players are not injured. Many teams that want to stand out play hard when matched with big clubs. This is something big clubs worry about. Fenerbahçe, Galatasaray and Beşiktaş tours will pass comfortably in the matches. I don't think a surprise team will win the trophy this year. One of the 3 clubs I mentioned in my message will get the trophy.

Early tours are a bit unappealing as they don't involve much competition. But these matches are an opportunity to watch young football players. Because big clubs go to these matches with substitute players. They rotate the squad by giving the players who could not find the chance to play in the league an opportunity in the cup. For this reason, sometimes surprising results can occur in matches. My favorite in the cup is Galatasaray. Fenerbahçe and Trabzonspor are competing in the European cups. Galatasaray are a little bit luckier in my opinion.

At the moment, we are still at the beginning of the tournament. It's too early to make a clear comment. Of course, there may be a favorite team eliminated from the tournament with a surprise result. However, looking at the current table, it would be a completely random comment to comment on this.

With the end of the World Cup, the 5th round matches of the Turkish Cup will be played. Before the league matches, we will return to the season with cup matches. Some of the big teams will probably not play as a few key players have just returned from the cup, but I don't think it will affect the matches. Especially the teams that rotate frequently in the first rounds of the cup will go through without feeling the lack of these few players. When we look at the matches, the probability of surprises seems low. However, we may see some big teams being eliminated that didn't take the tournament seriously. For example, the rivals of Fenerbahçe and Trabzonspor are a little more difficult. But it wouldn't be a surprise if teams take the game seriously. These teams didn't have many players in the World Cup.

Fenerbahce - Istanbulspor

Fenerbahce had a defeat in their last Turkish league game, but from what I see it was a defeat only thanks to the exhaustion of their players, now in the friendly games they won all the games, of the 4 friendly games they managed to win all of them and scored a lot of goals, that shows that they are still very strong, while their opponent Istanbulspor did not have a good performance in the friendly games, honestly I think that Fenerbahce will win this game, they are the best team in relation to Istanbulspor, maybe in this game between at least 2 to 3 goals, it seems to me that Fenerbahce can score a lot of goals in this game

[qory]

In the Turkish Cup you sometimes see very big results. The difference between professional clubs and amateur clubs is also quite large. However, THE strongest teams in Turkey are not so strong that they all go through to the next round without any problems. They just aren't good enough for that. I couldn't pick a real favorite either. Except for the fact that Galatasaray, Besiktas and Fenerbahce are the strongest teams in this cup tournament and will remain for the time being.

[karabiber]

Beşiktaş played many friendly matches during the league break. I can say that Beşiktaş is especially effective in the third region and has no difficulty in finding goals. Together with Şenol Güneş they give the appearance of a team that is closer to more goals and thinks of the attack. They will be strong against Şanlıurfaspor on offense. Şanlıurfaspor is fighting for the top of its league. In their last match, they unexpectedly lost to Afyonspor. They will look for a surprise against Beşiktaş. I think Şanlıurfaspor will try to balance the game in the midfield. Let's just say it's tough in this game. Beşiktaş will win this match with more than one goal.

Of course, Fenerbahçe is the heavy favorite in this match. They probably won't have a very difficult match and they will win easily. But I'm not sure how many goals they will score. After all, the important thing is to pass the tour. It doesn't matter whether you score 1 goal or 10 goals. Fenerbahçe can idle the game after finding the score that will bring the tour. Because they will have a very important match in the league at the weekend. They will not use their main roster in this match and we will see many young players and rotation players. In this regard, handicap score and goal bets can be risky. Be careful when placing a bet.

We are directly starting our domestic cup today as soon as World Cup ended. I generally dislike Turkish cup because it makes schedule so unnecessarily tight.
Fenerbahçe is gonna face İstanbulspor which is gonna be match to look for. Players didn't play anything but friendlies this last month so hard to say it's guarenteed for Fenerbahçe. But they won't like to lose for sure. Fenerbahçe coach is dedicated to football.
