Fenerbahçe looks to steady its domestic campaign on Aug. 22 when it hosts Konyaspor, aiming to bounce back from a disappointing opening-weekend setback in the Süper Lig.
The Istanbul club suffered a 2-1 defeat at Gençlerbirliği in its league opener, placing early pressure on the club ahead of its first domestic home fixture of the season. Sandwiched between a midweek 1-1 draw against Olympic Lyon in Champions League playoffs and Aug. 26’s return leg, Fenerbahçe turns its attention to a Konyaspor side that also dropped its opener, falling 1-0 at home to Rizespor.
Aug. 22’s slate features three additional fixtures across Türkiye. League newcomer Çorum plays host to Kasımpaşa, while Rizespor welcomes Samsunspor following a thriller in Week 1 where Samsunspor drew 3-3 against Göztepe.
