Correct Score Prediction: Kayserispor 1-2 Beşiktaş Istanbul

I am predicting a hard-fought 1-2 away victory for Beşiktaş. This is a classic “banana skin” fixture, and Kayserispor’s incredible home form will ensure they push the Istanbul giants all the way and get on the scoresheet. However, the sheer depth and quality of Beşiktaş’s attack should be the deciding factor. Even in a hostile environment, their ability to create chances and the clinical finishing of their star forwards should be just enough to overcome a stubborn Kayserispor side and secure a vital three points.

Team News Kayserispor

Kayserispor will have to contend without their key central defender, Majid Hosseini, who is serving a one-match suspension for an accumulation of yellow cards. This is a significant blow ahead of facing the league’s best attack. On a positive note, veteran striker Mame Thiam is in excellent form and will be the focal point of their attack, looking to exploit any spaces left by the visitors.

Team News Beşiktaş Istanbul

Beşiktaş manager Şenol Güneş may be forced to rotate his squad slightly due to a congested schedule. Star forward Vincent Aboubakar, who played a full 90 minutes in their European fixture last week, could start on the bench to manage his minutes, with Cenk Tosun ready to deputise. Midfielder Salih Uçan has recovered from a minor knock and is expected to return to the starting lineup.
