Fenerbahce welcome the visitors Erzurum BB in the Turkish Super Lig – Round 16. The match will be held on Monday, December 17th, at the Sukru Saracoglu Stadium (Istanbul).
Erwin Koeman has resigned from his post of the Fenerbahce’s head coach, now the team are headed by 56-year old Ersun Yanal. Thus, presently, there are no international coaches in the Turkish Super Lig. The new manager will surely whip up Fenerbahce’s players who brought such a reputable club to the second lowest place. It is also noteworthy that all Turkish coaches assigned along this season were victorious in their first matches. There are yet six of them. So, it is highly likely that Yanal will become the seventh member of this honor roll. There is no further retreat for the Istanbul team, and their Monday clash with the closest rival gives them an opportunity to finally start climbing the league table.

Quite unexpectedly, Erzurum BB managed to advance to the Super Lig last season, taking just the fifth place in the TFF First League. Their main task for the present run is to stay in the Super Lig, which is very difficult to do. Yet by now, Erzurum sit in the relegation zone because of their extremely poor away performance – they racked up only four points in seven outings. The team have also changed the head coach in the end of September and recovered a bit afterwards, but they’ve been currently going through a rough patch again, featuring two consecutive defeats.
It is high time for Fenerbahce to stop fooling around and start playing, but it looks like the whole mess with the team’s coaches has plagued the process. Ersun Yanal is familiar with the club, therefore, he was invited as a specialist who knows how to rectify the situation, therefore, he is expected to give a proper impulse to his men. The ‘Yellow Canaries’’ fans will certainly come to support their team at these challenging days. Finally, if Fenerbahce lose to outsiders like Erzurum, especially at home, they may wave the white flag and get ready to the First League. We believe the new coach will not go to such an extreme. A win, a very confident one, will provide a starting point for Fenerbahce’s revival in this season.
Prediction for the match: Fenerbahce to win home.
