Command Analysis
Rizespor
TurkeyCurrent form
Rizespor were probably hoping to have a smooth season and secure their place in the Super League early, but they lacked stability in the first round. Ilhan Palut team is currently in 12th place in the table with 20 points and is five points clear of the relegation zone - a handicap that cannot guarantee anything. In the last round, Rizespor lost 0:3 to Goztepe, thus extending their winless streak in the championship to three matches.
Disqualifications and injuries
Yasar is injured.
Interesting trends for betting
- Rizespor are unbeaten in their last six home matches, with five wins and a draw.
- Rizespor have scored in their last six home matches
Estimated line-up: Grbic - Sahin, Moksi, Alikulov, Pala - Hadziahmetovic, Papanikolaou, Gezzal, Olavoin, Akintola - Sow.
Besiktas
TurkeyCurrent form
Besiktas could hardly have set more ambitious goals for themselves than the fight for third place – the Eagles are seriously inferior to Fenerbahce and Galatasaray in terms of player selection. However, there are serious problems even with this goal – Serdar Topraktepe’s team is currently only sixth in the table and is four points behind third-placed Samsunspor. Having drawn 1:1 with Alanyaspor in the last round, Besiktas failed to win the second match in a row.
Disqualifications and injuries
Paulista, Immobila and Uysal are injured.
Interesting trends for betting
- Besiktas have won just one of their last eight matches.
- Besiktas have conceded in six of their last seven matches
Tentative line-up: Gunok - Zainutdinov, Topchu, Uduokhai, Svensson - Al-Musrati, Uchan, Muchi, Fernandes, Rafa Silva - Kilychsoy.

3.35Tip and bets
Rizespor looks very decent at home and has not lost at home for six matches. In each of them, the Hawks scored and today they will probably also be aggressive in front - Besiktas is not distinguished by reliability in defense. At the same time, the Eagles are in dire need of a victory and will clearly take risks from the first minutes - an exchange of goals in such a match is almost inevitable.
We believe that there will be goals in the match. Forecast - both will score . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.65
Bet on the outcome
Despite the fact that Rizespor have looked very decent in their last home matches and have not lost, it will be problematic to build on their success. The Hawks have not had any opponents of Besiktas' level recently - the Eagles have a serious advantage in class and will be incredibly motivated and charged only for victory, it makes sense in such a situation to take a risk and give preference to the guests.
Bet - Asian handicap (0) on Besiktas. This bet is offered for 1.85
Bet on corners
Besiktas are the favourites and will probably spend a lot of time attacking, but Rizespor are capable of responding at home, there should be a lot of corners.
Bet - total over 9.5 corners. This bet is offered for 1.99
