Besiktas vs St. Patrick Prediction: the Turks Will Defeat Their Opponent

Besiktas vs St. Patrick: Prediction for the Match on August 14, 2025

The second leg of the third qualifying round of the 2025/26 UEFA Conference League is on 14 August 2025 at the Türkşaş Stadium in Istanbul. Local side Beşiktaş will be hosting St. Patrick's from Dublin. The match is due to kick off at 9pm. We got you covered with a prediction for Besiktas vs. St. Patrick's and all the key stats.

Besiktas: form and statistics

Besiktas is one of the three strongest teams in Turkey, but they haven't been having much luck recently. They won their last title in the 2020/21 season and finished last season's national championship in fourth place.

The next Turkish Super League season hasn't even started for the Istanbul team yet, but they've already played three official matches. First, they lost twice in a row to Shakhtar in the Europa League qualifiers – 2:4 and 0:2 – and then beat St. Patrick's in the first game of the Conference League qualifiers – 4:1.

St. Patrick: form and statistics

St. Patrick's has also won the national championship before. The Red and Whites have been Irish champions seven times, but their last title was in 2013. They came third at the end of last season's tournament, but now, after 27 rounds, they're only sixth in the standings.

The Irish have already come a long way on the international stage, starting from the first qualifying round of the Conference League. First, they beat Hegelman from Lithuania 1-0 and 2-0, then they beat Nõmme Kalju from Estonia 1-0 and 2-2, but lost the first match to Beşiktaş 1-4.

Besiktas vs St. Patrick: head to head statistics

Besiktas vs St. Patrick match prediction 14 August 2025

St. Patrick's has already beaten two opponents on its way to the UEFA Conference League group stage, but in the third qualifying round, it will face Besiktas. I'll be honest with you, the Istanbul team isn't perfect at the moment. But they've got a very experienced and skilled squad, so I'm sure they'll be able to handle the Irish, no matter what form they're in. Even when they're not playing at home, the Black and Whites still beat their opponents 4-1. And when they're playing at home, they're definitely going to beat Dublin.

Beşiktaş's defence has been poor recently. In their last six matches, the Istanbul team has let in goals, including against St. Patrick's, and in total during this period, they've let their opponents score 13 times (2.17 per game on average) – not great.
