The Turkish Super Lig match between Besiktas and Konyaspor will take place at Tupras Stadyumu on Monday at 10:30 pm IST.
Besiktas and Konyaspor, teams with different standings in the Turkish Super Lig, will clash at Tupras Stadyumu on Monday. Both teams are also set to compete in the Turkish Cup quarter-final soon, so aside from aiming for three points, they’ll also vie for a psychological edge before their upcoming cup match.
Besiktas faced a setback last weekend, drawing 0-0 against Kayserispor, widening the gap to second-placed Fenerbahce to a huge 24 points. Their performance wasn’t surprising given their inconsistent form throughout the season, partly due to numerous injuries. They dropped to fourth place but are tied with Trabzonspor on points, trailing only on goal difference. While qualifying for the Champions League seems unlikely, their spot in any European competition next season is uncertain, with Kasimpasa just one point behind. However, Besiktas can take confidence from their previous win against Konyaspor, with a 2-0 victory in October, extending their unbeaten streak against them to four matches since December 2021.
While Besiktas has faced challenges in the league this season, Konyaspor’s campaign has been even tougher. They aimed to improve on their eighth-place finish from last season but find themselves struggling with just 25 points, fighting to avoid relegation. They’re currently three points behind the first team outside the relegation zone. However, the bottom half of the table is close, and Konyaspor could change their situation with a good run of results. The team’s new coach, Fahrudin Omerovic, earned his first win recently, giving hope for improvement. However, they face a tough task to secure another win, as they haven’t won an away game since September last year, enduring an 11-match winless streak.
Besiktas probable starting lineup: Gunok, Svensson, Worrall, Colley, Masuaku, Elmusrati, Muci, Fernandes, Tosun, Kilicsoy, Muleka
Konyaspor probable starting lineup: Slowik, Oguz, Damjanovic, Yazgili, Haubert, Dikmen, N’Zonzi, Ethemi, Cicaldau, Prip, Cikalleshi
