Fenerbahçe bring the stronger overall squad and attacking ceiling, while Samsunspor's own scoring form gives the Over 2.5 side a second route.
Fenerbahçe's opening league matches produced an average of 4.5 total goals, including a 4-2 win over Konyaspor. Their early attacking output has also been supported by xG figures around the 2.6-per-game region.
Samsunspor opened with a 3-3 draw against Göztepe and then won 2-0 against Rizespor, scoring five goals in two games. That matters because Fenerbahçe do not need to supply all three goals themselves.

The X2 adds useful protection. Fenerbahçe are priced as clear away favorites, but a 2-2 draw still wins the result side. Scorelines such as 1-2, 1-3, 2-2 or 2-3 all complete the selection.
At 1.98, the combination offers a strong balance between Fenerbahçe's quality and the attacking potential of both sides.
