- Competition: Turkish Cup
- Date: 5th March 2026
- Kick-off: 17:30 UK / 18:30 CET
- Venue: Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Stadium
Thursday night in Istanbul feels low-key, but it carries weight in Group B. Eyüpspor are fifth. Konyaspor arrive with three wins from three, level at the top on points and only behind on goal difference. Five points sit between the sides. That is not trivial.
Bookmakers lean toward the Anatolian Eagle, which makes sense on current form. However, Eyüpspor have lost just once in their last four at home. That kind of run can shift belief, even against sharper opponents.

Turkish Cup
Since 2019, these sides have met six times. Konyaspor lead with three wins. Eyüpspor have one. Two ended level. Clean sheets have been rare. Only one for Konyaspor in that stretch. The average goals per game stands at 2.83, which hints at fairly open encounters.
Eyupspor team overview
The Purple and Yellows are still chasing a first ever appearance in the Turkish Cup round of 16. The current campaign has started modestly. One win. One draw. One defeat. Not disastrous, but hardly commanding.
Atila Gerin’s men are also wobbling in the Super Lig, with just one victory in four league matches. The table shows Eyüpspor hovering three points above the drop zone. That tension seeps into cup nights as well.
Home form, however, offers encouragement. Only one defeat in the last four at Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Stadium. Two wins in that run, scoring at least twice in both.
Umut Bozok remains the main attacking outlet, supported by Lenny Pintor and Ángel Torres.

Konyaspor team overview
The Anatolian Eagle have made a habit of progressing from the group stage, doing so in each of the last five campaigns. A semi final last season still feels fresh. Naturally, expectations have grown.
İlhan Palut’s side opened this group with wins over Antalyaspor, Bodrum and Aliağa. Efficient. Confident. Sitting just below the top on goal difference.
Yet away form raises an eyebrow. Three consecutive road defeats in recent matches and winless in five of the last six.
Ufuk Akyol remains sidelined with a long term knee injury, while Melih İbrahimoğlu is out with a calf problem. Depth is tested, though not exhausted.

Prediction
A 2–2 draw would make sense, all things considered. Konyaspor have cruised through the group, yet the Anatolian Eagle have gone 19 away matches without shutting anyone out. That pattern nags at you. Eyüpspor have scored twice in two of their last four at home. You can almost see the exchanges unfolding. Clean defending feels less convincing.
Four reasons we expect both teams to score in this game
- Konyaspor are without a cleansheet in their last 19 games away from home.
- Eyupspor have finished only two of their last 19 games without conceding.
- Konyaspor conceded at least two goals in each of their last three away games.
- There were goals at both ends in each of the last five meetings between Eyupspor and Konyaspor.
