Fenerbahçe's Worst Season Opening in Eight Seasons
Returning to the Champions League, the yellow-navy team has displayed its weakest performance since the 2018-19 season by collecting six points in its first four matches.
Returning to the Champions League after a long hiatus, Fenerbahçe failed to achieve the desired results in the first four weeks of the Süper Lig, marking its worst start in eight seasons and falling behind the top of the standings.
Expected Points Not Collected in the First Four Matches
Fenerbahçe achieved only two victories in its first four matches in the Süper Lig.
Under the management of İsmail Kartal, the yellow-navy team left the pitch with two defeats during this period.
A Four-Point Loss in the Title Race
Following the inconsistent results, Fenerbahçe fell four points behind leaders Galatasaray.
Criticized by fans and the sports community, the team suffered early-season blows with this situation.
Resembling the 2018-19 Season
In this remaining period, the yellow-navy team repeated its worst performance since the 2018-19 season.
Experiencing serious point losses in the first four matches back then as well, the team faced a similar picture.
The Difficult Starting Picture of the Past
Losing nine points in the first four matches of the 2018-19 season, the Canary had suffered consecutive defeats following a win against Bursaspor.
At that time, the team had left the field without any points against Yeni Malatyaspor, Göztepe, and Kayserispor.
Defeats in the Current Season
This season, suffering 2-1 defeats against Gençlerbirliği and Beşiktaş, Fenerbahçe managed to collect only six points.
These point losses negatively affected the team's overall trajectory in the league.
