Besiktas vs Antalyaspor Prediction & Betting tips
Not a single game in the Süper Lig has been lost since January 2020 – if you think this is one of the top clubs in Turkey, Antalyaspor will teach you better. The red-whites from the holiday area tackled the relegation battle with the right attitude. With five points ahead of the saving bank, the struggle for relegation is not over yet.
On Saturday evening, Besiktas against Antalyaspor is in the favorites role according to odds. We would definitely recommend a tip on the black and white from Istanbul, especially since it is already a “do or die” game for the black eagles. Besiktas is currently five points behind the fourth from Sivas. It is quite possible that the black and white will reduce the deficit on Saturday evening.
No spectators will be allowed in the Vodafone Park in Besiktas on Saturday evening. The games in the Süper Lig are played against a ghost backdrop in accordance with the TFF hygiene concept.
For many clubs in the Süper Lig this would be the financial super meltdown par excellence. In addition to our following Besiktas vs. Antalyaspor’s prediction, further tips and analyzes on Turkish football can be found in the betting base section Süper Lig Tips.
Besiktas:
Sergen Yalcin wants to continue the upward trend with his black eagles. Almost four months ago, the former “super left foot” was introduced as a new trainer at Besiktas. Since then, the black-and-white from Istanbul have had a 4-2-1 record. Only the away game at Basaksehir second in the table was lost.
After a mixed season, Besiktas is out for damage limitation in the rest of the season. The Black Eagles want to take a starting place for the Europa League in the best possible scenario. The gap to fourth in the table from Sivas is currently five points, but Besiktas is in a direct comparison against the competitor.
In the event of a possible tie at the end of the season, the “Yigidos” from Sivas have the upper hand. In order to continue dreaming of international competition in the coming season, Besiktas has to build a winning streak in the end of the season. As the home record of the black and white from Istanbul shows, three points for the restart of the Süper Lig are quite realistic.
In the 13 home games of the current season, Besiktas has a home record of 8-3-2. Under Sergen Yalcin, there have been two wins and a draw in the last three home games, although the division of points against the Black Sea club from Trabzon was very unfortunate. The Black Eagles dominated the home game against the league leaders at will.
Individual mistakes caused two goals, which resulted in a tie. In the season finale, the Black Eagles will no longer appear with regular goalkeeper Loris Karius. The contract was terminated by mutual agreement during the season break. According to Yalcin, who emphasized, among other things, that it was Karius last season at BJK, this decision was to be expected.
Utku Yuvakuran will be in the black and white box until the end of the season. On Saturday evening, further changes in the starting eleven can also be expected. In addition to the suspended Burak Yilmaz, the two injured N’Koudou and Ruiz are missing.
Antalyaspor:
Tamer Tuna returns to his old place of work – this time as Antalyaspor coach. The former assistant coach of Senol Günes, who celebrated two championships together, was seen as the future trainer for the Black Eagle. The Besiktas board has had other plans in the recent past, which is why Tamer Tuna stayed with Anatolian clubs.
At Göztepe, his first official trainer station, Tamer Tuna did an excellent job and led the yellow-red to the safe relegation. Then the 43-year-old trainer went to Sivas and finally came back to Izmir. Neither at Sivasspor nor when he returned to Göztepe did Tuna convince and therefore had to pack his bags again.
As coach of Antalyaspor, Tamer Tuna is supposed to realize the relegation. Since his arrival, there has been a clear upward trend in the scorpions from Antalya. Since the home defeat against Göztepe (0: 3), Antalyaspor has been unbeaten. In the meantime, the series has already been increased to eight games in the Süper Lig. Before the season break, there were three points against the title aspirant from Sivas.
Next week, Antalyaspor will play the semi-final second leg in the Turkish Cup. The red-whites have to catch up with a 0-1 home defeat from the first leg against the neighbor from Alanya. So Antalyaspor faces two difficult away hurdles. In the Super Lig, Antalyaspor has been unbeaten in their last four away games. There were, among other things, away wins over Malatyaspor (2: 1) and Denizlispor (3: 0).
Tamer Tuna will be able to draw from the full when the Süper Lig is restarted. There will be no major changes compared to the last starting eleven against Sivasspor, where Tuna relied on a double with Lukas Podolski and Adis Jahovic.
