There is something a bit tense about this one. Besiktas host Antalyaspor on Friday in a game that matters at both ends of the table. The Black Eagles sit fourth, holding a six-point cushion, while the Scorpions are trying to stay clear of trouble. On paper, it leans one way. Still, recent form suggests it might not be that simple.

Since 2022, these sides have met eleven times, which is more than you might expect. The Black Eagles have five wins, Antalyaspor just two, with four draws in between. Goals tend to show up as well, around 2.9 per game on average. So, usually not a quiet fixture.
Besiktas team overview
The Black Eagles had a chance to build momentum last weekend, but that trip to Fenerbahce proved tricky. A narrow 1-0 loss does not look disastrous, though it still ended a short winning run.
Sergen Yalçın’s side now return home, where things have been more stable. Three wins from the last four at Tüpraş Stadium suggests a level of comfort there.
Oh Hyeon-gyu has settled quickly since joining from Genk. Four goals and one assist in eight matches is a decent return, especially considering he is still adjusting. He should lead the attack again.
Wilfred Ndidi remains unavailable with a hamstring issue, which does leave a gap in midfield. However, beyond that, the squad looks fairly intact. No suspensions to complicate things, which helps in a game like this.

Antalyaspor team overview
The Scorpions finally gave their fans something to enjoy with that 3-0 win over Eyupspor. Ending a six-match winless run in that fashion felt… overdue. The question now is whether that was a turning point or just a brief lift.
Away form makes you hesitate a bit. Sami Uğurlu’s side have lost four of their last five on the road and have not won any of their last nine away fixtures. That is a long stretch. Still, results at Tüpraş Stadium have not been terrible.
Avoiding defeat in three of their last four visits might offer some quiet confidence. Sander van de Streek, now on five goals for the season, is expected to lead the line. Samuel Ballet should support from wide areas. The attacking pieces are there, at least on paper, but consistency remains the real issue.

Prediction
A 2-1 win for the Black Eagles feels about right, even if it might not be entirely comfortable. Besiktas have won three of their last four at home, which gives them a solid base. Antalyaspor, however, tend to concede on the road, four defeats in five says plenty. Still, the Scorpions usually find moments, so a narrow scoreline makes sense.
Three reasons we expect over 2.5 goals
- Seven of the last eight meetings between these sides produced over 2.5 goals.
- Three of Antalyaspor’s last five league matches have seen at least three goals.
- Five of Besiktas’ last six home games have gone over 2.5 goals.
Main prediction -
Over 2.5 goals
