It will be soccer madness Saturday at the İstanbul Fenerbahce Stadium, as Fenerbahce and Galatasaray square off in one of the biggest derby matches in Turkish soccer history.
Both team have same point , but Galatasaray has the better goal differential over its crosstown rival.
The Turkish Super League has been trying something new this season, by deciding the championship using a four-team round-robin postseason, called the Super Final.

The two Istanbul teams will take part in a winner-takes-all battle on Saturday, with the winning team going on to claim the league title. The trophy will go to Galatasaray in the event of a draw.
Game will begin at 19:00 (local time) at Kadıköy Fenerbahçe Stadium and it will be broadcast by Lig TV.
