Gaziantep vs Besiktas prediction 11.03.2024

• Competition: Süper Lig
• Date: 11th March 2024
• Kickoff: 17:30 UTC / 18:30 CET
• Venue: Gaziantep Stadium

On Monday evening, Gaziantep will host Besiktas, continuing their battle to remain in the Turkish top flight next season.

Despite withdrawing from the Süper Lig last year due to earthquakes in their city, the hosts have struggled since their return. Currently, Marius Șumudică’s team is in the relegation zone with only 28 points from 28 matches. They are heading into Monday’s game with a disappointing record of just one victory from their last nine games in all competitions.

Meanwhile, Besiktas have kicked off the new year on a positive note following a challenging 2023 that saw them slide into the lower half of the table. The Black Eagles, in their recent match, played host to league frontrunners Galatasaray, aiming for their fourth straight victory in all competitions. Despite ending up on the losing side at the end of the game, Fernando Santos’ team can find some comfort in having conceded only one goal.

Gaziantep vs Besiktas Betting Tips: Under 2.5 goals

Gaziantep has been struggling to score goals this season, marking it as one of their major weaknesses. The Falcons have surpassed a single goal only once in their last eight matches across all competitions. These matches saw less than 2.5 goals scored in six instances, indicating a likelihood of a tight game on Monday.

Recently, Besiktas’ strongest asset has been their defense. They have managed to keep a clean sheet in eight out of their last twelve games, and they will definitely be aiming to prevent their opponents from scoring in this match as well.

Moreover, the majority of recent games between Gaziantep and Besiktas have not been particularly exciting. Four out of the previous five matches ended with less than 2.5 goals, and I anticipate a similar outcome in the game on Monday.

• Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals
• Gaziantep vs Besiktas prediction: 0-0
