Fenerbahce host Roma at Şükrü Saracoğlu Stadium on Thursday, September 10 (12:45 PM ET / 11:45 AM CT / 9:45 AM PT).
There’s no fresh availability news to flag for either side, so Fenerbahce should be able to call on their most reliable performers from the start. Mason Greenwood arrives with 2 goals and 1 assist already this season. Archibald Norman Brown has a goal of his own from 330 minutes, and Vedat Muriqi offers a focal point after scoring from just 175 minutes off the bench. Marco Asensio Willemsen and Mattéo Guendouzi, both credited with 8 chances created, look set to dictate tempo through midfield, while Nélson Semedo has already banked 505 minutes on the right side of Fenerbahce’s defense.
Markets make Roma the favored side here, though Fenerbahce’s home advantage at the Şükrü Saracoğlu Stadium always counts for something in this competition. Both clubs open this league phase from 0 points and 0 games played, so early signals carry extra weight before the table takes shape. It’s the sort of opener that could turn on Fenerbahce’s front line finding the target from the kind of positions Greenwood and Muriqi have already shown they can convert this season.
