Fenerbahce is most productive also early in the game - 0-15 and 16-30 minutes (40% each), and concedes most often between 16-30 minutes (43%). This profile indicates that Fenerbahce is stable defensively, while FCSB tends to have productive endings. Considering both teams' average goal-scoring and FCSB's frequency of Over 2.5, a bet on over 2.5 goals at 1.80 seems justified: FCSB often plays high-scoring games, and Fenerbahce can maintain the pace.

The line also includes an outcome on corners: Fenerbahce's win is at 1.47. Given both teams' high activity in corner deliveries, it's logical to consider a bet on total corners over 9.5, and also note Fenerbahce's edge in the odds for a win on corners. This corner profile is confirmed by the average frequency of high totals in both teams' recent matches.
