Gaziantep vs Besiktas Prediction: Besiktas has the opportunity to go up

Both teams have not really got the start they dreamed about in the Super Lig this season and find themselves in the middle of the table. Conversely, Besiktas have performed well, though they’ll be looking for the three points here to get amongst the league leaders and to enter in the title race. Besiktas were better in the last season. They were 6th but were close to ECL qualifications spot. I think they could start playing better soon and move up on the table. They are 8th, but they are just 7 points from 1st place. Gaziantep is in bad form with 1 draw and 2 losses in the league. They draw 3-3 vs Karagumruk and lost 2-1 to Kayserispor and 2-0 vs Alanyaspor. At home, they are not that good with 8 points from 5 matches. In the last season, they barely escaped the relegation and they improved a lot since. Still, they are not as good to oppose the big teams in the league.

The host is currently in the 10th place with 16 points, 4 wins, 4 draws and 5 defeats. He entered in a bad form before the break, but played several friendly matches and a match in the Turkish Cup and it seems that he improved. In the last 3 matches against Besiktas on this stadium he has 2 wins and a draw and it gives some hope to the home fans for a good result.

Besiktas had many ups and downs in the first half of the season but somehow, he still is in the game for the title or at least spot in the Champions league next season. He also improved his form in the friendly matches and everyone expects Besiktas to be more serious team in the remaining of the season and to enter the title race. Currently Besiktas is in 7th place with 22 points, 6 wins, 4 draws and 3 defeats.

Although Gazientep knows to cause troubles to some big teams especially when he plays against Besiktas, in this match after the break Besiktas should have enough strength to overcome it. Lately both teams played matches with a lot of goals and we can expect fun match with goals and Besiktas to win at the end.
