Besiktas vs Rizespor Prediction & Betting tips
Exactly a week ago, the two clubs met during the English week of the Süper Lig, now the round of 16 in the Turkish Cup between Besiktas and Rizespor is on. As the odds of the best bookmakers show, the Black Eagles from Istanbul are, as expected, favored. After all, there was an impressive runaway win against the Black Sea Club last week.
Rizespor conceded six goals and thus the highest defeat of the current season. Cyle Larin became the “Man of the Match” in the home game against the blue-green guests from Rize, after all, the Canadian winger scored four goals in one game and thus set a milestone at BJK.
Rizespor does not seem to have recovered from the defeat in Istanbul. Last weekend, after a disappointing performance, there was only one point in the home game against the table penultimate from Denizli. If you consider how weak Rizespor was in the away games of the current season, there is currently not much to suggest a surprise cup coup at BJK.
Besiktas :
Besiktas is currently at the top of the table in the Süper Lig, level on points with city rivals Fenerbahce and only two points ahead of Turkish record champions Galatasaray. The most recent loss of points by the newly promoted Hatay team was all the more disappointing. Besiktas only got a draw after an offensive exchange of blows.
Numerous chances were left behind in the course of the game, but Besiktas cannot complain about winning the point. Hatayspor had numerous chances, especially in the first half, to extend their interim lead to two goals. For the first time after five competitive games with a clean slate, there was again a weak appearance of the BJK defensive.
In the Süper Lig, the Black Eagles from Istanbul have a record of 6-1-1 in eight home games, with a total of 21 goals scored. Six of them were achieved by the black and white offensive in their recent home win over the upcoming cup opponent from Rize.
The victory against the Black Sea Club was by no means surprising, after all, the shape curve in Vodafone Park is quite impressive.
If the latest offensive swing is taken, a quarter-finals entry for Besiktas is unlikely to be an option. Because the Black Eagles will face Turkish record champions Galatasaray this weekend, it remains to be seen how the protégés of head coach Sergen Yalcin will do on Wednesday evening.
It is quite possible that the former “super left foot” will rotate in the cup game against Rizespor and thus spare his performers for the derby against Galatasaray.
Rizespor :
Stjepan Tomas is not yet on Rizespor’s hit list. If the form crisis continues, it will only be a matter of time before the Croatian has to leave his place. Most recently, the Black Sea club from the Kackar Mountains remained unbeaten four times in a row, so the points cushion on the relegation places has been reduced to five points.
After an away debacle at Besiktas almost a week ago, a draw against Denizlispor, the penultimate table of the Süper Lig, followed last weekend. Rizespor can hardly complain about the point win against the black-green guests from Denizli, after all, the equalizer fell for the Black Sea club only in stoppage time.
The fact that the difficult away game in the second round of the Türkiye Kupasi will be mastered in the current constitution can be ruled out, especially since Rize’s weak away record confirms that assessment.
At Besiktas vs. Rizespor, a forecast on the guests can only be justified with a good portion of optimism. Abroad, the Black Sea club from the Kackar Mountains had a record of 1-3-4 this season, with an average of almost two goals conceded per away game. Only Ankaragücü and Karagumruk were worse off abroad.
On Wednesday evening, Rizespor coach Stjepan Tomas will only have to complain about two failures. In addition to the injured goal-getter Loic Remy, Ismail Köybasi, a former BJK player, has to take a break due to an injury.
Compared to the youngest starting XI against Denizlispor, changes in the Blue-Greens cannot be ruled out. After all, the Croatian trainer has more options in the squad on Wednesday evening.
