Team News

Besiktas
Kasimpasa
  • Necip Uysal is sidelined with a long-term injury and will not be available until March 2025.
  • Mortadha Ben Ouanes will start at left-back as Kevin Rodrigues is injured.
  • Sadik Ciftpinar is set to deputise for the suspended Nicholas Opoku.

Prediction

  • Besiktas were beaten 2-1 by Galatasaray last time out. The Black Eagles had some valid complaints about key refereeing decisions but in all fairness Van Bronckhorst's team was uncharacteristically tame going forward. Al Musrati's return to the starting XI should provide much-needed strength in midfield and also allow Fernandes more freedom in attack.
  • Kasimpasa suffered an unsurprising yet still humiliating 4-1 home defeat at the hands of Samsunspor last time out. Their already shambolic defending will be hurt even more by the absence of Opoku. They are quite likely to create scoring chances here but it would be a miracle if they got anything out of this.
