Turkish Super Lig, 1st Lig enter 4th week with high-stakes matches

The Trendyol Super Lig and Trendyol 1. Lig enter their fourth week of competition, with several critical matches scheduled for this weekend. Fans and analysts are closely watching as teams aim to secure early-season points.

The weekend's most anticipated match in the Turkish Super Lig is Fenerbahce's home game against Alanyaspor at Sukru Saracoglu Stadium. Fenerbahce, currently leading the league, seeks to maintain their unbeaten record. After a commanding 5-0 victory over Caykur Rizespor last week, Fenerbahce enters this match with confidence.

Brazilian midfielder Fred, who scored a hat trick in the previous game, and Edin Dzeko, who has scored in three consecutive matches, are expected to lead the attack. Fenerbahce looks to keep the momentum going and avoid a repeat of the last encounter against Alanyaspor, which ended in a draw.

Alanyaspor, in contrast, has struggled with two draws and one loss in their first three matches of the Turkish Super Lig. The team desperately needs a win to move away from the relegation zone. Fatih Tekke, Alanyaspor's head coach, has yet to secure a win this season, making their upcoming match against Fenerbahce crucial as they aim to climb the standings and secure valuable points.

Other key matches in the Turkish Super Lig include Galatasaray's visit to Adana Demirspor and Besiktas hosting Sivasspor at Tupras Stadium. Galatasaray, coming off a mixed start to the season, aims to collect valuable points to stay within reach of the league leaders. Besiktas, after a disappointing start, is looking for a win to regain their footing in the league.
