Squandering a one-goal lead in the dying embers of the game against Gaziantep to play out a 1-1 draw, Besiktas headed into the international break without a win in their last two matches across all competitions. This follows a 3-1 loss to Eintracht Frankfurt in the Europa League.

The Black Eagles have made a solid start to the season as they are located in the top three and are five points adrift of the top spot. They have avoided defeat in their last seven matches, recording five wins and two draws. Head coach Giovanni van Bronckhorst will be hoping for an improved performance this time from his team and secure a much-needed win to regain momentum as a tricky away game against Lyon awaits them.
