Pendikspor recorded their seventh draw in 20 league matches after salvaging a point in a 1-1 draw against Hatayspor at the Mersin Stadyumu courtesy of a Leandro Kappel equalizer in the waning seconds of the game. Following that, they proceeded to squander a one-goal advantage against Antalyaspor to lose 2-1 away from home in the fifth round of the Turkish Cup.

Gaining promotion to the top flight for the first time in their history was a joyous occasion; however, their debut in the top flight has been nothing but a disaster for Ivo Vieira and his wards. Pendikspor is poised as the runner-up for relegation in their inaugural season; however, there remains an opportunity to reverse their fortunes. They are winless in eight league matches, recording five losses and three draws, and getting back on track could turn out to be an arduous task as they go up against a side in resurgence mood.

With 16 points accumulated from 20 matches, Pendikspor occupy the 19th spot within the relegation zone in the Turkish Super Lig standings, nine points ahead of Istanbulspor, rooted at the bottom of the table, and five points behind safety.

Fernando Santos is definitely finding joy in coaching Besiktas after a twelve-year absence. Since his appointment, he has notched three consecutive wins—two in the league and one in the Turkish Cup.

In their latest match against second-tier Eyupspor in the fifth round of the Turkish Cup, the Eagles secured a comfortable 4-0 victory at home, which was their third consecutive time that they have preserved a clean sheet for the first time since September 2023. Armed with abundant confidence, they should easily overcome the challenge posed by their opponents in this upcoming match, who have been struggling.

With 35 points accumulated from 20 matches, Besiktas sits fourth in the Turkish Super Lig standings, three points ahead of fifth-placed Rizespor and two points behind third-placed Trabzonspor.

Formation: 4-1-4-1

• Pendikspor are currently on a seven-match winless run across all competitions.
• Besiktas has kept three consecutive clean sheets across all competitions.
• Pendikspor averages 0.78 goals per game when playing at home, and Besiktas averages 1.7 goals per game when playing away.

This will be the first Super Lig meeting between these two sides.

Under Fernando Santos' managerial reign, Besiktas has undergone a transformation, exuding a distinct prowess and entering this encounter with soaring confidence. The Eagles, in a remarkable display, have clinched victory in three successive matches across all competitions. Furthermore, their resilience on the road remains unblemished, boasting an unbeaten streak of four matches, marked by three wins and a solitary draw.

Considering the gulf in quality and experience between the two sides, we expect the away side to secure a comfortable win against a side that is currently on a three-match winless run at home by backing them up in the full-time market.
