The Turkish Super League will host the Turkish National Derby in the 25th round. Galatasaray will face Fenerbahce at home. According to reports from Turkish media Sabah before the game, both teams have given huge bonuses to motivate players for this game. Fenerbahce has prepared a bonus of 5 million euros. As for Galatasaray, the specific amount has not yet been determined. The final decision lies in the hands of the club president (Dursun Özbek). It is reported that he promised the players that if they beat Fenerbahce, the players can fill in the bonus amount themselves, which is equivalent to writing a "blank check."

In the pre-match meeting against Galatasaray, Fenerbahce coach Mourinho said when verbally motivating the players: "We know Galatasaray well, but they have just been eliminated from the Europa League, so their morale is low, but we have successfully advanced to the top 16 and our morale is high."
