Fenerbahce vs Al Ittihad Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | Pre-season friendlies 2025

The previous meeting between the two sides ended on level terms.

Fenerbahce are ready to take on Al Ittihad in a pre-season club friendly fixture. The interesting contest between the two clubs is all set to take place at the Estádio Municipal de Albufeira.

Fenerbahce have already been a part of two club friendlies in Portugal and the Jose Mourinho-led side have won both of them. They will now be looking to secure their third win in a row, but the upcoming contest will not be an easy one of them as Fenerbahce are set to take on the Saudi Pro League winners next.

Al Ittihad have already begun training for their upcoming season. They will take on the Turkish giants in their first pre-season fixture. After the successful season, Karim Benzema and company will be keen on continuing their form. The Saudi Pro League side are coming in after a break, which might affect their momentum.

Players to Watch

Youssef En Nesyri (Fenerbahce)

Youssef En Nesyri is going to play an important role in the attacking front for Fenerbahce. It will be a big task for them to slow down the Saudi Pro League side, but in the final third, En Nesyri can play his role and help his side by scoring a goal or two.

Karim Benzema (Al Ittihad)

The Frenchman was the top goal scorer for Ittihad in the Saudi Pro League during the 2024-25 campaign. Karim Benzema will be looking to come back on the field with a bang.

Despite his age, he still looks dangerous while being on the attacking front for his team. Benzema is going to create problems for Fenerbahce’s defence.
