Fenerbahce lost the first match 1:2, but will now play at home, where they are usually strong. In the last home friendlies, the team demonstrated a good attack (4:0 against Al-Ittihad, 2:0 against Leiria). However, their defense is not always reliable, as can be seen in the defeats to Benfica (2:3) and Feyenoord (1:2).
Feyenoord are in excellent shape: 4 wins in the last 5 matches, including a victory over Fenerbahce and thrashings of Breda (2:0) and Wolfsburg (4:0). The team scores consistently, but also concedes goals, especially in away matches (0:2 defeat to Lieferming).
Fenerbahce will be forced to take risks today, which increases the chances of an exchange of goals, as Feyenoord are strong in the counterattack.
