Istanbul teams Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe will play a derby match in Turkey's top-tier Spor Toto Super Lig on Friday.

The match at Galatasaray's Turk Telekom Stadium will kick off at 9.00 p.m. local time (1800GMT).

Galatasaray are third in the league with 19 points while Fenerbahçe with 9 points are at the 15th spot.

Fernando Reges, Emre Akbaba and Yuto Nagatomo will not play against Fenerbahçe due to injuries.

Galatasaray's Mariano Filho will also miss the match after he was banned for the next game last week.

Galatasaray have not been defeated at home in the last 24 matches (22 wins, 2 draws) in Turkish Super League.

Fenerbahçe dismissed its Dutch manager Phillip Cocu from duty after a 3-1 loss to Ankaragucu last Sunday.

Cocu was the 72nd manager of Fenerbahçe and the team's 38th foreign manager to take over managerial duties in the club.

Galatasaray could not win the last six matches against Fenerbahçe in Turkish Super League.

The teams will meet for the 388th time after competing for 109 years. Fenerbahçe beat Galatasaray 146 times and were defeated 123 times.
