Fenerbahce lost 2 points after debatable penalty decision.
Fenerbahce has lost crucial two points at title race as it has drawn against Sivasspor with 2:2 scoreline which did come partly from visible tiredness of Fenerbahce but possibly even more due of very debatable penalty decision at the end of the game.
With Galatasaray winning Pendikspor on previous day with comfortable score, Fenerbahce did come to the game where it needed to be winning but it was expected to be tough game for them as they had been relegated from Conference League both dramatically and also effort given to the players. This has been case as game been played as Fenerbahce did fail to get full tempo and control of the game and did make some mistakes, but despite of that it managed to get ahead twice during game with 1st goal coming from Fred and hard working goal from Irfan Can Kahveci. It also needs to be mentioned that Sivasspor are being one of the strongest defending side at the league which has also affected to the performance of Fenerbahce. Stating that Fenerbahce did get very questionable penalty decision from Manaj as the ball been out when Livakovic and with him scoring this has affected directly to title race and Fenerbahce hopes.
Sivasspor as been noted has provided some good defensive game and despite of conceding 2 goals, it has managed for opponent to get control of the game. With getting such draw against Fenerbahce, Sivasspor would be focussed to upcoming 5 games as it aims for European spots.
Fenerbahce hence did lose 2 points in pretty debatable manner and are being 4 points behind league leaders Galatasaray as 5 games left until end of the season and only thing it can to is to win all 5 games including against Galatasaray and hope Galatasaray will draw somewhere.
Galatasaray carries on winning as title is getting closer.
Galatasaray carries on its leadership at the Super League as we are entering to last 5 games of the season as it managed to get confident win against Pendikspor with 4:1 scoreline even through it did struggle during 1st 30 minutes.
It needs to be mentioned that main reason or in other words turning point of the game has been great shot of Mauro Icardi outside of penalty area as he once again did take leadership role. It would need to be mentioned that prior to conceded 2 goals back-to-back Pendikspor did provide good defensive game and even through it did get some chances at goal, it fifny look like it would be able to score despite of goal scored in the end of 1st half and quality factor between sides did play crucial role and also taking aspect that Galatasaray does provide pretty good attacking game in recent weeks.
Galatasaray hence keepts its advantage at this intense title race as it aims not to lose game until Fenerbahce game during penultimate week.

It would be expected for Besiktas to show some crucial improvement in this Turkish Cup game as there could be even be more supporters pleasant at the stadium. Since its being game which would be one step closer, Ankaragucu would be expected to provided stronger and organised game game against Besiktas which could lead them to provide more creative game at the front and be careful at defence.
Besiktas would be coming out as favourite but game could be more tougher compare to league one.
