Stats

Besiktas have seen BTTS in 7 of their last 9 matches.
Istanbul Basaksehir have seen BTTS in 9 of their last 13 away matches.

HTH

Besiktas have a 13-10 advantage against Istanbul Basaksehir with 15 draws in 38 matches.

They last met in November, the game ending in a goalless draw.

Besiktas Form

Besiktas had a great run when Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was appointed as new head manager, but their recent form has been poor, grabbing just four points from last four Super Lig clashes.

The Black Eagles suffered back to back defeats against underdogs Gaziantep 2-1 and Konyaspor 1-0 in mid-March but wrapped up the month with a sensational 2-1 home win against the reigning champions Galatasaray, Rafa and Gedson Fernandes finding the net.

They started this month with a disappointing 3-1 loss to Goztepe in the Turkish Cup quarterfinals, while last weekend’s clash against Kasimpasa ended in a 1-1 draw, Gedson Fernandes saving the day with his late equalizer.

Istanbul Basaksehir Form

Cagdas Atan’s side is having a decent run in the Super Lig, currently sitting in 6th place with 42 points from 28 matches, still hoping to snatch one of the European positions.

The Owls were inconsistent in the first half of March where they beat Sivasspor 1-0, but then lost two games in a row against Kayserispor 3-1 and Trabzonspor 3-0.

It turned out the international break is exactly what Basaksehir needed, resuming the Super Lig action with back to back victories against Eyupspor 3-1 and most recently Konyaspor 1-0.

Polish striker is having an incredible season so far, bagging 19 goals in his 27 Super Lig appearances, while also registering two assists.

Team News

Hosts have a lot of problems with injuries, Felix Uduokhai, Elen Ricardo, Necip Uysal, Bakhtiyor Zaynutdinov and Emirhan Topcu being ruled out. Semih Kilicsoy and Tayyip Talha Sanuc are serving suspensions.

As for the visitors, they have a couple of big concerns as well, Onur Ergun and Jerome Opoku confirmed to miss this clash. Deniz Turuc is doubtful.

Predicted Starting Lineups

Besiktas: Gunok, Masuaku, Paulista, Terzi, Svensson, Fernandes, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Mario, Rafa, Arroyo, Immobile

Verdict

Besiktas v Istanbul Basaksehir

Basaksehir are coming off two straight wins, while Besiktas rarely keep their net intact. Both sides are scoring more than 1.50 goals per match in the Super Lig, so we should witness an open clash. BTTS is my top pick.
