• Besiktas have lost seven of their last nine away games (two draws).

Back Konyaspor to get the better of Besiktas

Besiktas’ recent resurgence under caretaker boss Önder Karaveli could come to a shuddering halt when they face second-placed Konyaspor on Monday. The reigning champions have enjoyed a small bounce under the guidance of the low-profile coach, but this is a much tougher test than anything he’s faced before.

And, despite overseeing a run of two wins and a draw from three matches, this Besiktas team are still unable to keep clean sheets and that could be fatal when up against one of the best defences in Turkey.

Konyaspor, who are four points clear of the team in third place, have conceded just 15 goals in 18 games so far and can boast a string of home clean sheets lately.

Form holds up for hosts to pull through

Although they seem well capable of scoring multiple goals against mid-table teams like Besiktas are right now, one might be enough in this contest. They have already played the three other clubs currently in the top four at home and got results in all of those games: a draw with runaway leaders Trabzonspor and 2-1 wins over Fenerbahce and Istanbul Basaksehir.

Therefore the form looks good for a home win here with Besiktas bringing a sorry away record of just one win, three draws and four defeats with them. A 2-1 scoreline is favoured because Konyaspor average 1.78 goals per game at home this season while Besiktas have scored a total of eight goals in eight away games this term.
