Form: LDLLL

Gaziantep made a promising start to the season, recording a 1-0 win over the newly promoted outfit Bodrum. Since that win, they've been on a series of unconvincing performances that currently leave them languishing in the relegation zone. 

In their most recent match, they suffered a narrow 3-2 defeat against Eyupspor. This extended their winless run in the league to five games (L4, D1) and will fancy their chances of getting back to winning ways against a team they've struggled against in past meetings. 

Formation: 4-4-1-1

The Black Eagles were denied their maiden win in the UEFA Europa League, losing 3-1 to Eintracht Frankfurt on Thursday. They have now suffered back-to-back defeats in this competition, accounting for their 4-0 thrashing against Ajax Amsterdam on match day one.

Head coach Giovanni van Bronckhorst will be seeking a response from his team in the league where they've met expectations and are in contention for the title. After a 1-1 draw against Trabzonspor on September 15th, they've secured back-to-back wins against Eyupspor (2-1) and most recently Kayserispor (0-3), leaving them in third place and three points behind the top spot.

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Gaziantep has been in poor form this season, and nothing much can be expected from them in this uncommon encounter. Besiktas, on the other hand, has been impressive in the league and is expected to cruise to a comfortable win, which is why we anticipate supporting them in the full-time market.
