Venue: Bakasehir Fateh Tarim Stadium
Fresh from lifting a trophy recently, Maccabi Netanya take a trip to the Turkish capital of Istanbul to face Basaksehir on Thursday. The Super Lig side hosts its Israeli opponents for a place in Europe's third-tier competition, the Conference League, albeit this is just the first leg of the contest. Netanya managed to win the Israeli League Cup against Maccabi Tel Aviv recently, contrary to expectations, even receiving a red card in the process and ending the triumph with 10 men. But, Istanbul will definitely not be a side which will restrict themselves from punishing the Israeli side if they go down in this contest.
Istanbul Basaksehir vs Maccabi Netanya Betting Tips
Basaksehir come into this contest with a 9-game unbeaten record, which continues from the previous season. The Super Lig side even beat Konyaspor in the one and only friendly that they have played this summer, as of yet. Moreover, the hosts have scored in 8 of these 9 unbeaten ventures too, opening the scoring each time. On the other hand, Maccabi Netanya have clearly scraped their way through victories and stalemates. The away side has not scored in the last 270+minutes on the field now, which is concerning. We are counting on them to not score in this game again, which means that Istanbul should get a clean sheet and probably 2 goals to take advantage to the second leg.

Istanbul Basaksehir Team News
In what looks to be a very refurbished side, Basaksehir still has the terrific trio of Leo Duarte, Lucas Lima and Lucas Biglia holding the club's back from a defensive point of view. While the former two are part of the strong backline, Lucas Biglia's role as a holding midfielder ensures that the team has a fifth defender in place when they are under attack. Add Stefano Okaka upfront to the mix, and we get our four players to watch in this game - who could surely turn the game into their favour any time.

Maccabi Netanya Team News
It will not be an exaggeration to say that Maccabi Netanya crawled their way to surviving the League Cup normal time, and were lucky to win on penalties. The survival stint also cost a few yellow cards to the Thursday's visitors and a red card to right-back Shay Konstantini too, as he prepares to sit out the opening Israeli Premier League games next month. Konstantini will be handed a start as the best right-back of the team on Thursday, though. Maccabi Netanya have struggled to keep their opponents quiet on the wings, and that makes Konstantini and Florian Hartherz, the two full-backs, extremely important to this trip to Istanbul.
