How to watch the Super Cup match between Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe, as well as kick-off time and team news.
Just a few days after a toothless Turkish Super Lig draw between Galatasaray and Fenerbahce, the two Turkish heavyweights cross swords once again in the Turkish Super Cup Final.
Galatasaray have won the Turkish Super Cup the most times in the history of the competition as they’ll be vying to lift the glorious prize for the 17th time in their illustrious history. The Lions were the more dominant side when the two sides met in the Super Lig and they’ll be looking to replicate their heroics.
Fenerbahce, on the other hand, have won the Super Cup nine times and could share the joint-second spot with Trabzonspor if they upset their arch-rivals in their own backyard. The likes of Edin Dzeko and Dusan Tadic will play a pivotal role for the visitors if they want to add another piece of silverware to their cabinet.
