Fenerbahçe vs Konyaspor — Match Preview

The unbeaten Yellow Canaries return to Kadıköy on Sunday, 14 December 2025, looking to turn draws into wins. Fenerbahçe sit 3rd with 33 points, boasting an invincible record (9W 6D 0L), but recent draws against Galatasaray and Başakşehir have slowed their title charge. They face a Konyaspor side sitting 11th with 16 points, who are struggling for consistency and dealing with significant suspension issues. Fresh off a dominant 4–0 Europa League win over Brann, Fenerbahçe will look to carry that scoring form back into the league.

Fenerbahçe vs Konyaspor — Tactical Analysis

Fenerbahçe

Jose Mourinho’s side (assuming tactical continuity) will look to dominate possession and exploit the flanks. With Çağlar Söyüncü out, the Becao-Djiku partnership must remain focused against counter-attacks. The key will be Fred’s energy in midfield connecting with Szymanski and Tadic. After scoring 4 in midweek, confidence in the final third is high.

Konyaspor

Konyaspor are decimated by suspensions (Demirbag and Ndao).7 They will likely sit in a deep block and try to frustrate the home crowd. Their left-back, Guilherme, is their main creative outlet on set-pieces, which might be their best route to goal given Fenerbahçe’s dominance in open play.

Fenerbahçe vs Konyaspor — Key Battles

Dzeko vs Yazgili — veteran savvy vs backup defender
Tadic vs Boranijasevic — technical mastery on the wing
Fred vs Pedrinho — midfield engine battle
Saint-Maximin vs Guilherme — pace vs positioning

Fenerbahçe vs Konyaspor — Spotlight Players

Fenerbahçe — Sebastian Szymański

The Polish midfielder is the engine of the attack. His ability to press high and arrive in the box is crucial for breaking down Konyaspor’s low block.

Konyaspor — Guilherme Sitya

The captain and left-back is Konyaspor’s most consistent performer. With key attackers missing, his deliveries from corners and free-kicks are vital.

Fenerbahçe vs Konyaspor — Prediction

Fenerbahçe 3–0 Konyaspor

Fenerbahçe are unbeaten and facing a Konyaspor side missing their best defender and winger. The hosts found their scoring touch in Europe on Thursday and should cruise to a comfortable victory in front of the Kadıköy faithful.
