Turkish Super League 2025/26 Season

[yenerbatmaz]

As expected, Kocaelispor defeated Antalyaspor 2-1.
Kocaeli's first goal was a gift from goalkeeper Abdullah. Antalya managed to equalize 1-1, but this time goalkeeper Abdullah couldn't stop Tayfur's shot from an angle. Antalyaspor went into the mid-season break with a defeat. Antalya needs to get rid of some of its underperforming players and bring in quality footballers during the mid-season transfer window.
They especially need to get a goalkeeper and a very good striker.
If they sign Cenk, who is currently out of the squad at Fenerbahçe, their goal-scoring problem will be solved and they can stay in the league. Otherwise, Antalyaspor is one of the biggest candidates for relegation.

Around 70-80% of broadcast income is shared among the three big teams. Also, Anatolian clubs can't find sponsors with good deals. Their jersey sales are also low. Furthermore, they can't keep their squads together. For example, there's already talk that Thomas Reis will return to the Bundesliga. If that happens, Samsunspor won't be able to achieve stability. Also, if they develop good players and offers come for them, they have to sell because the players want to leave. So, they face another disadvantage in terms of squad stability. Actually, this situation is the same all over the world. Under these conditions, it's obviously not easy to talk about fair competition...

That is mainly because of the fandom. Unlike England, most of the other nations are fans of big clubs. Like in Germany, surely there are fans of other teams, but look at Bayern Munich, even people who do not live in Munich supports them. Or look at PSG, even people who are not in Paris supports them. Same goes for Turkey just like any nation, people from all around the nation supports the big clubs and that is why smaller clubs do not get the money they need. If they were like England, where even if your team is a small few thousand seater stadium town club you support them.

This is why smaller clubs in Turkey, Germany, France, even sort of Spain do not get the money they need, because people do not go to their games in full capacity at a decent price and buy their jerseys and other merchandises to make them some money.

Fenerbahçe is said to have reached an agreement with Veerman. If true, I think it's a great transfer. Veerman has impressive goal and assist statistics for a central midfielder. He would be a very useful player for Fenerbahçe. The only concern I have is that he has never played outside the Netherlands before. Will he get homesick here? Will he have adaptation issues? If these aren't problems and he adapts quickly to the team, this could be a transfer that changes the course of the season.

When Fabrizio Romano publishes a news story, I trust it because he always takes care to publish true news, and according to Fabrizio Romano:

Fenerbahçe agree deal to sign Joey Veerman from PSV Eindhoven, here we go!

Fenerbahçe are set to trigger the release clause for Veerman for fee over €20m.

Veerman has agreed personal terms with Fener, ready for the move.

I don't know if it will be a good signing or not, but I pray that Fenerbahçe can put together a squad capable of winning the title. Speaking of Fenerbahçe, today they play against Eyupspor, and it's strange that the bookmakers are giving odds of @1.40 if Fenerbahçe wins today's game, even knowing that Eyupspor is fighting to get out of the relegation zone. In their last 5 games, they've only won 1, while Fenerbahçe is coming off a convincing victory against Konyaspor, who are far from the relegation zone. Could there be some bad news about Fenerbahçe? I confess I'm searching all the sites and I can't understand why the odds are so high in favor of Fenerbahçe.

Antalyaspor has parted ways with Erol Bulut. He took over the team in October and was fired less than 2 months later. I think he lasted quite a long time. He only won once in 8 league games. He had a good squad at his disposal but didn't know how to use it.
Emre Belözoğlu was also the wrong choice, just like Erol Bulut. Now Antalyaspor has missed 16 important weeks. They are just one spot above the relegation zone. Yet this squad is capable of competing for European cup spots. I hope they can find a good manager that can achieve better with what's in his hands.

Last season, they ended the season with disappointing results, the same as their current position which is almost relegated. I'm not a fan of the Süper Lig, so IDK how good Antalyaspor was in the past, all I know is that they were just an average team amidst the dominance of Galatasaray, Fenerbahce & Besiktas.

I'm not a fan of Turkish league football either, but sometimes I watch the matches of Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe. I have been following Turkish the league table for so many years so that I would know the teams that are doing well, and what I can say about Antalyaspor is that they are just a team that fights to avoid relegation and nothing else.

Even if you do not closely follow the Turkish league, keeping an eye on the table over the years gives you a good sense of each club level looking at Galatasaray and Fenerbahce naturally stand out because of their quality and consistency, while teams like Antalyaspor tend to live season to season. Antalyaspor main objective is usually survival rather than competing for European spots or trophies. They can be tough at home and occasionally upset bigger teams, but overall their squad depth and ambition are geared toward avoiding relegation.

Well, that's the point. I wonder why a weak team like them is even being discussed here. If they're not interesting, then they're not worth talking about. I mean, let's limit it to only interesting teams like Fenerbahce, Besiktas, Galatasaray, Istanbul BB or at least like Trabzonspor. Antalyaspor are a complete failure. They lost to Kocaelispor today & we'll likely see more bad results in the future. BTW, the league restarts today, with Fenerbahçe & Besiktas on the match schedule.

The eyüpspor – fenerbahçe match is being played right now, and it’s really unusual for the game to be scheduled at this hour.
The match is at eyüpspor stadium, and the pitch is honestly in terrible condition.
With goals from asensio and talisca, fenerbahçe are leading 2–0 Talisca is playing really well.

[MK-74]

Fenerbahçe are currently leading 3–0 against Eyüpspor and it’s been a comfortable match for them.
They look set to win with goals from Talisca, Asensio and Jhon Durán. There are 10 minutes left, and Fenerbahçe might score one more, but the current score is already enough for them.

Beşiktaş are facing a tough match against Çaykur Rizespor and are likely to struggle. Beşiktaş could drop points in this game; I like the way Rizespor are playing.

[ajanwalker]

Fenerbahçe won comfortably. Talisca and Asensio scored in the first half, making the score 0-2. They added another goal in the second half through John Duran, securing a 3-0 victory. I think John Duran scored a very stylish goal. With En Nesyri and Nene absent due to the Africa Cup of Nations, young players were given a chance. Haydar Karataş, born in 2007, got his first opportunity to play for Fenerbahçe. This makes him the first player born in 2007 to ever play for Fenerbahçe.

[xzone]

It was an easy victory for Fenerbahçe, and they rose to the top of the league after this match. If Galatasaray drops points, we could say Fenerbahçe is our new leader. Of course, this situation might not last long; Galatasaray will also play against Kasımpaşa, and they could similarly beat their opponents by scoring 3-4 goals.
Still, it's nice to see other teams at the top; it keeps the league exciting. We wouldn't enjoy the matches as much if the champion was already decided

[Jossque]

Konyaspor drew 1-1 at home against Kayserispor. Konyaspor put up a good fight against Kayserispor, but they shared the points at the end of the match. I think it was a decent result for both teams.
Fenerbahçe managed to secure 3 points with 3 goals away from home. Fenerbahçe, who scored 3 goals against Eyüpspor, managed to take the lead with one more game played. Fenerbahçe's attacking line, with goals from Asensio, Talisca, and Duran, put on a good performance.

Fenerbahce won by  4 -0. The team performed well. Since they still have no hope of winning the title, they have to continue their  winning streak. Galatasaray's performance  is quite stable. If fenerbahce cannot continue their winning streak, they have  no chance of occupying the top spot in  the table. Fenerbahce is now at the top of the points table. But if galatasaray wins their next match against sasimpasa, they will be 3 points ahead of fenerbahce. It will not be difficult to win against a team like kasimpasa. Kasimpasa is now in 14th place in the points table.

Fenerbahçe really could win easily with 3–0 score despite missing and non ready players such as Semedo, Alvarez, Brown, Nene, En Nesyri and Çaglar. Finishing the first half of the league unbeaten is a great achievement. With the return of injured players and a few new transfers i believe we will see an even stronger Fenerbahçe in the second half of the season.

[redhack]

Probably no one thought Eyüpspor could take points from Fenerbahçe today. It was an expected defeat for Eyüpspor, who are at the bottom of the league. Fenerbahçe's rising form, particularly that of Talisca and Asensio, was evident in this match. Jhon Duran's goal was also a welcome development for them. Fenerbahçe took the lead with a game in hand and shifted all the pressure onto Galatasaray's players.

I wanted to put more money on my bet, but I typed it wrong and when I realized it, it was too late. Since I had no doubt that Fenerbahçe would win the game, I wanted to bet $5 on Fenerbahçe to win, but unfortunately I typed it wrong and only put $1.23. With that odd versus the risk, it seemed like a good opportunity. I don't like odds below @1.50, but in this case, with Fenerbahçe playing against a very weak opponent, I saw that it was worth betting.



And I was right to place my bet, congratulations to Fenerbahçe on the victory.

...
Beşiktaş are facing a tough match against Çaykur Rizespor and are likely to struggle. Beşiktaş could drop points in this game; I like the way Rizespor are playing.

Beşiktaş earned 3 points today, but lost a lot of points in similar matches this season because they didn't have a good striker. Sergen had a goal-scoring striker like Abubakar in his previous term. Unfortunately, Tammy is not a good goal scorer. If Rasciha played as a striker instead of Tammy in every game, Beşiktaş would score more goals this season. If Beşiktaş manages to part ways with Tammy in the winter transfer window and then manages to sign a good striker, we could see a better Beşiktaş in the second half of the season. I don't think Tammy is a bad striker, but I don't think he has the skills to fit in with the Beşiktaş squad...

By the way, in this match, Sergen Yalçın preferred Taylan Bulut at right-back, and I think he played better than Gökhan Sazdağı. Also, Demir Tıknaz and Kartal Yılmaz performed well in midfield. Sergen Yalçın is trying to find the right formula by experimenting. I think this is a very good thing because he is not someone stuck in rigid patterns...

I was thinking that Fenerbache will have a difficult match because they were playing away from home and that makes me surprised when they win the game easily without any stress, Fenerbache win the game comfortably without no thinking they are playing at home and away, Fenerbache is in good shape since their last games, I have been noticing their current performance has improved and they are now ready to play as a team that wants to win win a trophy.

I will like Fenerbache to keep performing well so that they can win the league, Galatasaray is ahead of them but they can close the gap if they keep playing well and win their games, the new coach has changed many things in the club, things that Jose Mourinoh can not do in the club, it will be very excited to watch the Turkish league as very tough league that people will start seeing as a difficult league to win.

Fenerbahçe took the lead with a game in hand and shifted all the pressure onto Galatasaray's players.

I was confident about us to beat Eyüpspor easily and it happened. We were very dominant in the first half and didn't even let our opponent go for a shot.

And that was enough for us to secure the win by 3-0. Talisca and Asensio have been in an incredible form recently which helps with the wins a lot. To be honest Talisca's performance is quite beyond my expectation.

Now I hope Galatasaray stumble and we can use it for our advantage.

[MK-74]

Fenerbahçe earned 3 points with a three-goal win and are now top of the table.

Beşiktaş beat Çaykur Rizespor 1–0 at home and took all 3 points. I was expecting a high scoring match, but it ended with just one goal.

Galatasaray will play against Kasımpaşa tomorrow. They have sent some key players to the Africa Cup of Nations, but I still expect them to win this match. I hope they do.

[Odohu]

Besiktas was my major pick to win Rizespor and also produce deliveryover 3.5. Unfortunately, Besiktas was able to only win but failed to give me 4 goals which would have made me to win. I still cannot understand how Besiktas could not destroy a small team like Rizespor that is not supposed to be a threat to anybody.
