Besiktas Prediction – Can Besiktas avoid third defeat on trot?

Having suffered recent back-to-back defeats to Yeni Malatyaspor and Fenerbahce, Friday night’s hosts, Besiktas, have dropped down to 5th place in the Turkish top flight and although there’s no guarantees of success here, a win for the hosts would see them move into 3rd place and level on points with Istanbul Basaksehir.

Plenty of incentive then for Besiktas to go all out for the three points on Friday night at Vodafone Park, but although this would usually look like being a home win, this upcoming encounter against Genclerbirligi may not be as cut-and-dried as many may anticipate.

An impressive 4-match winning streak which included wins against Alanyaspor, Galatasaray, Denizlispor and Kayserispor came to an abrupt end last time out on home turf when Besiktas were handed a 2-0 defeat by 8th placed Yeni Malatyaspor, so this encounter on Friday night may not be as straight forward.

Besiktas have beaten Genclerbirligi by a 2+goal margin just twice out of their last 9 meetings, and the hosts have actually lost their last 4 matches on the trot in all competitions too.

Genclerbirligi Prediction – Can Genclerbirligi take advantage of Besiktas slump?

The visitors may well be quietly confident and fancy their chances of walking away from Besiktas with something on Friday night as Genclerbirligi have lost just 1 of their last 7 matches overall in the Turkish top flight, which was a heavy 5-2 loss away at Fenerbahce.

Nevertheless, Genclerbirligi have produced some impressive results of late in the Turkish top flight with recent victories gained over Kayserispor, Kasimpasa and Goztepe as well as picking up points in draws with Konyaspor, Yeni Malatyaspor and Sivasspor – the latter are currently top of the Super Lig with a 4-point lead.

Results away from home have been a mixed bag for the visitors as they’ve grabbed wins at Antalyaspor 6-0 and a 2-1 win at Kasimpasa but have also incurred defeats at Ankaragucu and Fenerbahce.

However, Genclerbirligi’s recent improved run of form in the Super Lig should give the visitors plenty of confidence against an out of sorts Besiktas outfit, and this clash may be closer than many anticipate as a result.
