Gaziantep FK vs Fenerbahçe: Fenerbahçe to win
Gaziantep FK host a high‑scoring Fenerbahçe side, with the model rating the Turkish giants at a 48.8% win probability versus Gaziantep’s 25.2%. The expected‑goals gap (1.5 vs 1.0) underpins a clear advantage for the visitors.
Both clubs enter the fixture on uneven recent runs – Gaziantep FK have mixed results in their last five, while Fenerbahçe have shown flashes of potency but also vulnerability. The clash pits Gaziantep’s modest home record against Fenerbahçe’s solid away numbers, setting up a classic under‑dog versus favorite dynamic.
Lars's Verdict
The model assigns Fenerbahçe a 48.8% chance of victory, driven by superior expected goals and a more efficient away record.
Show the maths
With Gaziantep FK averaging 1.0 expected goals and Fenerbahçe averaging 1.5, the model gives a 50.9% chance at least one side fails to score, ahead of the 49.1% it gives to both teams scoring.
Show the maths
Combined expected goals of 2.5 (Gaziantep FK 1.0 + Fenerbahçe 1.5) points to a tighter game, with the model giving Under 2.5 Goals a 54.4% chance against 45.6% for Over.
Show the maths
Our Poisson model, built from each side's real season scoring and conceding rates, has Gaziantep FK at 25.2%, the draw at 26.0%, and Fenerbahçe at 48.8% to win.
The single most likely scoreline in our model is 0-1 at 12.3% — treat any single scoreline price with caution given how spread out the probability distribution is across a low-scoring match.

Gaziantep FK
Gaziantep FK’s recent five‑game run reads LDWLW, highlighted by a 4-2 away win over Göztepe and a 1-0 away victory at Eyüpspor. The win against Göztepe shows they can score multiple goals, but the preceding loss to Rizespor (1-2) and the earlier defeat to Başakşehir (1-2) expose defensive frailties that temper confidence in a home win.
Fenerbahçe
Fenerbahçe’s LWWL sequence includes a dominant 4-2 home win over Konyaspor and a 2-0 away win at Samsunspor, demonstrating their ability to find the net on the road. However, the recent 1-2 away loss to Gençlerbirliği and a 1-2 home defeat by Beşiktaş reveal occasional lapses, yet the two victories outweigh the setbacks for a win prediction.
Head-to-Head
In the last five meetings, Fenerbahçe have won every encounter, with scorelines ranging from 4-1 to 4-0, the most recent being a 4-1 victory on 17 March 2026. This dominant head‑to‑head record reinforces the expected visitor win.
