Alanyaspor vs Besiktas Prediction and Betting Tips

Still licking their wounds from their UEFA Conference League heartbreak, Besiktas return to action in the Turkish Super Lig when they take on Alanyaspor at the Bahcesehir Okullari Stadium on Sunday. The Black Eagles head into the weekend without a win in their last four games against the home side and will be looking to end this two-year run.

Alanyaspor were condemned to their first defeat of the new Super Lig campaign as they were beaten 2-1 by Eyupspor at the Eyup Stadium last Monday.

Before that, Joao Pereira’s men kicked off the new season with a somewhat disappointing goalless draw against Caykur Rizespor at the Bahcesehir Okullari Stadium on August 16.

Alanyaspor now return home, where they are unbeaten in their last five league matches, claiming two wins and three draws since April’s 1-0 defeat at the hands of Bodrum.

Meanwhile, Besiktas' quest for European football came to an end in midweek when they fell to a 1-0 home defeat against Lausanne-Sport in the second leg of the Conference League playoff to lose the tie 1-0 on aggregate.

This shocking result has seen Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s role as head coach of the Black Eagles come to an end after just eight months, with Sergen Yalcin taking over at the helm of affairs.

Besiktas now return to action in the Super Lig, where they will be looking to make it two wins from the opening two matches, having kicked off the campaign with a 2-1 victory over Eyupspor on August 17.

Alanyaspor vs Besiktas Prediction

Following their disappointing Conference League qualifying result, Besiktas will journey to the Bahcesehir Okullari Stadium aiming to restore some pride and maintain their perfect start to the league campaign.
