The Turkish Airlines EuroLeague will feature a Turkish derby Thursday between Anadolu Efes and Fenerbahce Beko.

The Istanbul clubs will face off in round 2, after both won round 1 games.

Fenerbahce's will be without the services of Scottie Wilbekin, who tore his ACL in a EuroLeague duel Friday against Olympiacos Piraeus and it looks like his season is finished.

Tarik Biberovic, who was out against Olympiacos because of an undisclosed injury, is also doubtful for the derby.

There have not been any reported injuries on the Anadolu Efes' roster.

The Istanbul derby will be played at Sinan Erdem Dome at 1730GMT on Thursday.
