Fenerbahce has provided calm and patient game against Royale Union
Fenerbahce has drawn against Olympiakos at Conference League quarter-final stage after beating Royale Union on last 16 with 3:1 aggregate scoreline despite of losing 2nd leg with 1:0 scoreline.
It needs to be mentioned that not to much criticism should be given towards this outcome from Fenerbahce as it did come to 2nd leg at home ground with 3:0 advantage and more or less only task it needed to do is to keep its advantage in this game which it has managed to do. Conceding goal on mid of 2nd half and also for Royale Union creating some chances afterwards did rise some worries but still Fenerbahce did look to be organised despite of being relaxed and even through it did concede goal from losing concentration it still got what it wanted. Without doubt an outcome prior to game against Trabzonspor has also affected into way team performed.
Fenerbahce now has been draw with Olympiakos and even through Fenerbahce does look to be slighly favourite in this tie, it needs to stay focussed as Greek side could provide lots of issues.
Antalyaspor could turn into advantage of poor sides of Besiktas.
Besiktas would be meeting with Antalyaspor during Super League 30th week as it still aims to end season at 3rd spot but its performance is not being on high notice in recent weeks and hard to be seen as favourite.
Besiktas continues to fail show high tempo performance for 90 minutes and doesnt show strong creative game with attacks focussing too much into defence which could be actually go in hand for Antalyaspor as it is being team which does show an attacking positive game and hence could find some good chances.
Besikas hence would be expected to have some issues during game as it does show serious decline with Fernando Santos in recent games both with results and performance.

Hence, this two friendlies could provide some good tests to national team. Its been important to see that Vincenzo Montella did call some names for first time and did lower average age since this players could be selected to side for Euro 2024 with how their performing at team and hence this would be good test and adaptation period for all those players both in training sessions and 2 friendlies.
This squad would be good test for Vincenzo Montella to see capabilities for Euro 2024 during this friendly games for sure.
