Team News

Besiktas
Ankaragucu
  • Amir Hadziahmetovic will be out of contention for the remainder of the season.
  • Cenk Tosun and Bakhtiyor Zaynutdinov will deputise for the injured Semih Kilicsoy and Arthur Masuaku respectively.
  • Mert Gunok is nursing a muscle injury and will be assessed before kick-off. If deemed unfit, Ersin Destanoglu will start in goal.
  • Tayfur Bingol, Onur Bulut, Ante Rebic, and Salih Ucan, who weren't expected to start here, are also on the injury list.
  • Manager Emre Belozoglu has a full squad available to pick from.

Prediction

  • Besiktas dropped two more points at home as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Samsunspor last time out. Santos was summarily sacked after the game and caretaker manager Topraktepe will be in charge until the end of the season. The Black Eagles's only hope to salvage this season is the Turkish Cup, where coincidentally they will be facing Ankaragucu in the semis. Although their form has been abysmal of late, players can be expected to react positively to the sacking of Santos.
  • Ankaragucu beat Gaziantep 3-1 last time out. They fully deserved to win and created some breathing space for themselves at the bottom of the table, where they sit 4 points above relegation zone. Every single point is key for Ankaragucu and wary of the positive impact managerial change can have on players, Belozoglu will approach this extra cautiously. However, expect them to create quite a few counter-attacking chances.
