Trabzonspor and Fenerbahce bring round 30 of the Turkish Super Lig to an end when they lock horns at Papara Park on Sunday.
Ismail Kartal’s men head into the weekend fresh off the back of reaching the UEFA Europa Conference League quarter-finals and will look to return to the top of the league table.
Trabzonspor returned to winning ways in style as they steamrolled Fatih Karagumruk 5-1 when the sides met at Papara Park last Saturday.
This followed a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Alanyaspor on March 4 which saw their five-game winning streak come to an end.
With 49 points from 29 matches, Trabzonspor are currently third in the Super Lig table, three points above fourth-placed Besiktas just outside the Europa League qualification spot.
Despite losing 1-0 to Saint-Gilloise in the second leg of their Conference League last-16 clash on Thursday, Fenerbahce booked their spot in the quarter-finals on aggregate, having secured a 3-0 victory over the Belgian outfit in the reverse leg on March 7.
Kartal’s men now turn their attention to the Super Lig, where they are on an 18-game unbeaten run, claiming 14 wins and four draws since November’s 3-2 loss against Trabzonspor.
With 76 points from 29 matches, Fenerbahce are currently second in the league table, just two points adrift of first-placed Galatasaray.
