Match Preview

Göztepe, coached by Stanimir Stoilov, has started the season strong, remaining one of three unbeaten teams along with Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe. However, they have struggled with draws, having ended both home games in ties. While Göztepe shows strong defense and can create chances, they often fail to convert them into wins.

Beşiktaş has had a rocky start, but a recent 2-1 victory over Başakşehir helped restore confidence and marked Yalçın’s first win as coach. The team showed resilience with a late comeback, which is important for morale. They now need to demonstrate improvement in away games, where they’ve underperformed this season.

Injuries complicate matters for Beşiktaş, with Körkçü suspended and Ndidi and Hekimoğlu out due to injuries. Still, the team has talented players who can change the course of the game. The focus will be on their attacking options, particularly Traoré and Türek.
