Form: DDLLL
After 24 matches played, Kayserispor occupy the 13th spot with 28 points in the Turkish Super Lig standings, level on points with 12th-placed Hatayspor and two points ahead of the relegation zone.
In their most recent match in the league against Gaziantep, Kayserispor blew a one-goal lead to be held to a 1-1 draw on the road, marking their second consecutive draw. Kayserispor have been in poor form, as they are winless in nine straight league matches (L7 D2), and little can be expected from them in this one.
Being at home has not done them any justice, as they are currently on a four-match winless run (L3 D1) since a 2-0 win over Pendikspor on December 10th, 2023. However, their inconsistency at the Kadir Has Stadium comes as a surprise considering that they were on an eight-match unbeaten run (W5-D3).
Probable Starting XI
Formation: 4-2-3-1
Bayazit; Civelek, Kocaman, Kolovetsios, Carole; Ozbek, Ackah; Cardoso, Kaldirim, Boa Morte; Sazdagi
Besiktas
Form: WLDLW
After 24 matches played, Besiktas sit in fourth place with 39 points in the Turkish Super Lig standings and have maintained a one-point advantage over fifth-placed Kasimpasa. With the title race out of the question as they are a significant 27 points behind the top spot, Fernando Santos can only contend for a European football spot.
In their most recent match against Antalyaspor in the round of 16 of the Turkish Cup, the Black Eagles came from a goal down to record a narrow 2-1 away victory courtesy of a Jackson Muleka brace. This follows a convincing 2-0 home win against Trabzonspor in the league, which halted a three-match winless run (L2 D1) where they were outscored 5-0.
On the road, they are currently on a two-match losing streak, although before this, they were on a four-match unbeaten run, recording three wins and a draw. In this fixture, they are currently on a three-match winning streak and will fancy their chances of getting back to winning ways.
Probable Starting XI
Formation: 4-3-3
Gunok; Bulut, Worrall, Colley, Meras; Rashica, Amartey, Fernandes; Ghezzal, Kilicsoy, Tosun

Expert Betting Tips
Kayserispor are currently experiencing a slump in form, and while expectations may not be high, they are likely to put up a spirited fight, especially considering they have the advantage of playing at home, making them one not to be discounted. Besiktas, on the other hand, enters this one brimming with confidence and will seek to extend their winning streak to three matches across all competitions.
Despite Besiktas being favorites to secure maximum points, their floundering performance cannot be ignored either, and picking them up in the full-time market can go sideways. As such, we anticipate seeing both sides get on the scoreboard in this one, combined with the total over 2.5, as this has been the case in five of their last eight meetings.
