Team News

Besiktas
Alanyaspor
  • Alex Oxlade Chamberlain will start in midfield as Gedson Fernandes is injured.
  • Necip Uysal, Emrecan Uzunhan, and Umut Meras, none of whom were expected to start here, are also injured.
  • The board announced that Rachid Ghezzal, Vincent Aboubakar, Jean Onana, Valentin Rosier, and Eric Bailly will no longer feature for Besiktas as they cause discordance in the dressing room. They are allowed to train with the rest of the squad, but at least for now, it seems they will not be playing the Black Eagles again.
  • Manager Fatih Tekke has a full squad available to pick from.

Prediction

  • Besiktas were beaten 3-1 by Fenerbahce last time out. This was an abysmal performance by the Black Eagles who were outplayed from the first minute to the last. 5 players were singled out for the recent dip in form and although some fans have been critical of the board's decision to ban these names from the first team, in the long run Besiktas will benefit from these drastic measures as promising youngsters will have more opportunities to prove themselves. Against Alanyaspor, at home, Besiktas will get all three points with a dominant display.
  • Alanyaspor managed to beat Istanbulspor 1-0 last time out. Both teams created and wasted a lot of chances. Despite the clean sheet, Alanyaspor's defence once again looked rather frail and will find it difficult to contain Besiktas's talented attackers.
