In the second leg of their match against Lugano at Ulker Stadium Sukru Saracoglu, Fenerbahce will be looking to secure their place in the Champions League third qualifying round.
Veteran Edin Dzeko scored a hat-trick as Fenerbahce won the first leg 4–3, and the Turks are now trying to hold onto their narrow lead. The home team has no new concerns regarding injuries.
Conversely, the Swiss team has an uphill battle in the rematch against Istanbul as they have to come back from a one-goal disadvantage.
Fenerbahce should have several opportunities to score on the break as Lugano will need to switch to an even more attacking strategy.
In any case, there will soon be another captivating game. Following their respective rests during the weekend’s 2-1 victory over Basel, Cimignani and Bottani are both requesting recalls.
