Prediction

  • Besiktas shared points with Kayserispor in a goalless draw last time out. Once again, Santos' squad picks and tactics were questioned after the game especially because under the Portuguese manager, Besiktas seem to have lost the ability to create any decent chances. The newly elected board is already under fire for appointing Santos, who the fans believe is too defending-oriented to lead Besiktas. It is almost impossible to foresee who will be included in the starting XI here but if there aren't some major changes from recent weeks, we can expect to see Besiktas struggling going forward once again.
  • Konyaspor were 1-0 winners against Ankaragucu last time out. This was a massive win for their survival chances and Omerovic will be looking to build on that. Seeing how their hosts are failing in attack, Konyaspor will reduce the tempo and defend very deep here.
  • This is an incredibly difficult fixture to foresee. If Besiktas' new arrivals have the desired impact and if Santos finds a way to get the ball to Kilicsoy more often, the Black Eagles might get a narrow win. Otherwise, a low-scoring or goalless draw could once again be on the cards.
