Gaziantep vs Besiktas Live Stream & Tips – Black Eagles to Win in the Super Lig
Besiktas take on a struggling Gaziantep side, who underwent a recent managerial change but continue to falter, losing 3-0 in their last outing. The Istanbul giants remain in fourth place, aiming to secure European qualification. Given Gaziantep's poor form and Besiktas' strong record—eight wins from twelve—Besiktas are tipped to win. Key statistics back this prediction, and their historical dominance further strengthens the case. The main recommendation: back Besiktas for the win, possibly with both teams to score (BTTS) for higher odds.
- Gaziantep haven't seen any improvements under new head manager
- We are backing Besiktas to collect the spoils on Friday evening
- Watch Gaziantep vs Besiktas live in the Turkish Super Lig
Gaziantep have nothing left to play for and they were smashed in last weekend’s clash against relegation candidates Eyupspor 3-0, which was Mirel Radoi’s debut match as the new manager. I am backing Besiktas to win here and secure European berth.

H2H Stats Going in Favor of Besiktas
Besiktas claimed 9 victories in their 18 head to head matches against Gaziantep, the Falcons securing 5 wins, 4 games ending without a winner.
Gaziantep Under New Leadership
Gaziantep have been struggling for form in the last two months and slipped to 10th place in the Super Lig without a chance to battle for European positions.
A 2-1 road loss to Rizespor was the final straw for head manager Burak Yilmaz who resigned immediately after that match.
An initial response was fantastic, the Falcons beating Kayserispor 3-0 in the follow up clash under caretaker Mustafa Aksoy. The next day, they appointed Mirel Radoi as the new head manager.
Radoi’s debut was a disaster though, Gaziantep suffering a convincing 3-0 loss to Eyupspor last weekend where they registered just 0.67 xG and created one goal chance.
Black Eagles Still Have Time to Salvage This Season
Besiktas had a lot of slip ups in the Super Lig recently but still hold desired 4th position (secures a spot in the Conference League) with three rounds left to be played.
Their most recent match on the road was at Samsunspor in mid-April, suffering a 2-1 defeat in an open and quite entertaining game to watch. Kristjan Asllani was the sole scorer for the Istanbul side.
Besiktas’ biggest focus in remaining weeks will be the Turkish Cup where they reached semifinals after beating Alanyaspor 3-0 at home last week, El Bilal Toure, Orkan Kokcu and Oh Hyeon-Guy appearing on the scoresheet.

Verdict
Besiktas had a couple of disappointing performances recently but still are one of the most successful Turkish teams in 2026 with eight wins in last twelve games. I will back them to beat Gaziantep who have nothing left to play for.
