Turkcell Super Lig Weekend Schedule

Turkcell Super Lig Weekend Schedule
By Nathan L. Redd

As the Turkcell Super Lig Week Seven schedule gets underway, Fenerbahce will be looking for three much-needed points in Kadikoy. They won't have to wait long to get their shot. Fenerbahce opens the weekend as Friday's only Super Lig game. They'll play host to Ankaragucu at Sukru Saracoglu Stadium at 20:30 (1:30 PM EST in the U.S.) on Friday.

Despite Fenerbahce's hopes, Ankaragucu have other plans. The capital city outfit are off to a blazing start, currently sitting in fifth place in the Turkcell Super Lig with eleven points through six games. They are tied (in points) with fourth-place Kayserispor, and a win in Kadikoy could pull them even with Besiktas in third place. Fenerbahce is sitting in the rare position of ninth place in the league, looking up the ladder they often occupy the top spot on. With only six games played, there is no time for panic, but Fenerbahce must take advantage of every opportunity. With nine points, they are only seven points behind the league-leader Galatasaray. Fenerbahce will be looking to close the gap on Friday.

For those outside of Turkiye, the game is available at www.digiturkwebtv.com for $9.95. Check back with Fenerbahce Worldwide after the game for coverage, and you can also read the Ankaragucu perspective (in English) at www.ankarafootball.blogspot.com.
