Although Istanbul has won 5 games and lost 1 in the recent league, most of the opponents are ranked behind the team, so it is absolutely reasonable for Istanbul to win. It should be pointed out that Istanbul has won four consecutive games in the past six league games, and the four consecutive wins are the team's longest winning streak this season. This is even their first consecutive win in the league since entering 2025. In addition, in the last three rounds, Istanbul's defense has been unstable, conceding a total of 7 goals, which to some extent reflects the ups and downs of Istanbul's overall state. What's worse is that Istanbul has only won 1 and lost 4 in the last five league games against Fenerbahce, and the score of 1 to 2 has occurred three times.

Although Fenerbahçe lost to Besiktas 0-1 in the last round, it cannot erase the fact that Fenerbahçe has performed very well this season. After all, after 32 rounds, Fenerbahçe has achieved 23 wins, 6 draws and 3 losses, with 75 points, 8 points behind the leader Galatasaray, and 24 points more than the opponent Istanbul in this match. In addition to the theoretical possibility of winning the championship, their overall performance this season is also better than Istanbul. Yusuf Ennisri, who had played in La Liga before, has become Fenerbahçe's top scorer this season. He has scored 16 goals so far and is even in the top 5 of the Turkish Super League's top scorer list.
