Fenerbahçe Open The Season!

Fenerbahçe open the season!

This week, the 2023/2024 season starts in the Süper Lig. Fenerbahçe, one of the strongest teams in the championship race, will welcome Gaziantep FK at Ülker Stadium.

Fenerbahce, who will play the first league game of the season in Kadıköy on Sunday evening, made many changes in the team before the start of the season. At the end of last season, they parted ways with coach Jorge Jesus and appointed İsmail Kartal as the new coach. This season, the primary goal of the chairman Ali Koç, who transferred remarkable players such as Dzeko, Tadic, Kent, Szymanski, Djiku, and Becao to the team, is winning the Süper Lig championship title. 

On the other hand, Gaziantep FK, who could not complete the last season due to the earthquake disaster in Turkey, will be at Kadıköy with the happiness of returning to the league after half a season they could not play.

Let's take a look at the statistics of the games the two sides played against each other:

Fenerbahçe won five of the seven Süper Lig games against Gaziantep FK. Three matches played in Ülker Stadium ended with the victory of Fenerbahçe, which had a total score of 11 goals in these games. In summary, the Yellow Canaries played with an average of 3 goals per game in every match they hosted Gaziantep FK.

Fenerbahçe had to open the season early due to the UEFA Conference League qualifying rounds. In the 2nd qualifying round, they faced Zimbru, and by winning 5-0 at Kadıköy and 0-4 on-the-road they qualified for the third round. In the first match of the third round, they hosted NK Maribor and left the game with a 3-1 win and an advantage for the next leg. In these matches, the performance and positive impact of the new transfers were quite impressive. Just like the previous seasons, the fans of Fenerbahçe believe in their team to succeed in the title race with all their heart. In the Conference League matches, the first two official matches of this season, the fans didn’t leave Fenerbahçe alone and filled the stands. They surely will take their place in the stands for the first match of the new season of the Süper Lig.

Abdulkadir Bitigen will officiate the match, which will be played at Kadıköy on Sunday evening, in beautiful summer weather. Gaziantep FK, whose return we have been waiting for a long time, will be the guests of Fenerbahçeplay, and this match will be very enjoyable with both the game on the field and the ardent support in the stands.
