Kocaelispor vs Fenerbahce prediction 02.02.2026 | Super Lig

Kocaelispor’s season so far has been defined by inconsistency. They have recorded only one win in the last five league outings, yet Kocaelispor have lost only once in the last eight Super Lig fixtures since early November. Their last two league encounters, however, saw them collect only one point from a possible six - a goalless draw with Samsunspor last weekend extended Kocaelispor’s unbeaten away record to three matches. 

At home, Kocaelispor have managed solid results and are capable of punching above their weight - recent form includes key wins and competitive displays at İsmetpaşa Stadyumu. However, they are averaging under a goal per game overall, pointing to offensive limitations against stronger defensive units.

Injury news has seen disruptions: key defender M. Wieteska is sidelined long-term with a cruciate ligament tear, while other squad members such as Bruno Petković and goalkeeper A. Jovanović face fitness doubts - factors that could impact Kocaelispor’s defensive organisation and creative outlets.

Fenerbahçe’s 2025/26 campaign has demonstrated strong consistency, illustrated by a recent run of four wins in their last six matches across competitions. Domenico Tedesco’s men are yet to lose a Super Lig game this season, placing them above their city rivals Galatasaray, although a large number of draws (7) has had a detrimental effect on their surge for the top spot in the league standings. Five wins in the last six league away outings set Fenerbahce up for a positive mindset heading into this game on Monday though.

Offensively, Fenerbahçe boast dynamic contributions across the front line, with seasonal goal involvement from players such as Marco Asensio, Talisca and Jhon Durán underpinning their scoring output. However, recent performances - including a home draw that left them three points behind the league leader - point to occasional finishing inefficiencies despite sustained pressure.
