Besiktas vs Goztepe

Besiktas will host Goztepe in the Turkish Super League continued on Saturday (03/16). Victory will be an absolute target for Besiktas in order to keep hope in finishing in the top 2.

Entering the 26th week of Turkey’s Super League this weekend Besiktas is still stuck in third place in the standings with a collection of 44 points. Besiktas is 5 points behind Galatasaray in second place which is the deadline for the Champions League.

With these conditions, the victory will be an absolute target for Besiktas when entertaining Goztepe this weekend. If it fails to win then the hope of being able to compete in the most elite competition in Europe will be very difficult for them to achieve.

Besiktas has a very good chance against Goztepe this weekend. Apart from the host factor, Besiktas’s performance has also been quite good lately. Victory over Konyaspor at the weekend made Besiktas unbeaten in the Turkish League throughout 2019. Of the 8 matches they recorded 5 wins and 3 draws.

On the other hand, Goztepe was only able to reach 2 points from their last 4 matches in the League. Goztepe also only secured 1 victory and also suffered 5 losses in their 8 matches in the League in 2019.

The track made the position of Goztepe slumped to 16th place or the relegation zone with a collection of 27 points. Goztepe’s chances of getting out of the red zone are still quite open considering they are only 1 point away from Bursaspor in the last safe zone. That way, not only for Besiktas, for Goztepe this fight is also quite important.

Looking at the tracks of the two teams lately, Besiktas deserves to be featured. Not to mention the fact that this fight will be played in their own home. However, Besiktas must remember that in the first meeting they were defeated 0-2 at Goztepe headquarters. Thus, Besiktas still has to be wary of a team that is struggling to get out of this relegation zone.
