Besiktas

Form: LWWLW

Just as everyone believed the Black Eagles had overcome their previous struggles in away performances in the league, reality came knocking, and this wasn't a pleasant visit as they were left shell-shocked by a Pendikspor side embroiled in a relegation battle to bow down to a 4-0 defeat.

Before this defeat, Fernando Santos men were on a two-match winning streak against Rizespor (4-0) and Fatih Karagumruk (3-0) and will seek to bounce back in this match, although they don't have fond memories to bask in when it comes to their opponents in this impending encounter with their first meeting in the league this season resulting in a 4-2 defeat.

With 35 points accumulated from 21 matches played, Besiktas sits fourth in the Turkish Super Lig standings, three points ahead of fifth-placed Rizespor and two points behind third-placed Trabzonspor.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-1-4-1

Gunok; Bulut, Sanuc, Bingol, Meras; Tiknaz; Rashica, Zaynutdinov, Fernandes, Kilicsoy; Tosun

Adana Demirspor

Form: DLDDW

Adana is undergoing a nightmarish commencement to the year 2024, as they've yet to register a win in their last five matches. During this run, only the third-tier Erzincanspor side dealt them a major blow, suffering elimination from the Turkish Cup in the fifth round after losing 6-7 in a penalty shootout.

In their latest league match against Ankaragucu at home, they were held to a 1-1 draw to share the spoils, which further extended their winless run at home to three matches. Away from home, they are one of the two sides alongside Istanbulspor in the league yet to register a win, as they presently find themselves on a ten-match winless run, recording six draws and four losses.

With 30 points accumulated from 21 matches, Adana Demirspor sit sixth in the Turkish Super Lig standings, level on points with seventh-placed Antalyaspor, and are seven points behind a Europa League qualifier spot presently occupied by Trabzonspor in third place.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Mahammadaliyev; Tokoz, Guler, Cisse, Dursun; Gravillon, Michut; David, Stambouli, Erdogan; Akbaba

Expert Betting Tips

Considering that Besiktas have lost one of their last 22 matches against Adana Demirspor when playing at home across all competitions (W13 D8), this provides ample confirmation that they will emerge as a dominant force in this matchup.
