Besiktas vs Eyupspor predictions: Hosts to reign supreme
Key stats
- Besiktas have won five consecutive home games.
- Eyupspor suffered a 4-0 defeat the last time they faced Besiktas.
- Both teams were on the scoresheet in four of Besiktas’ last five matches.
- Besiktas led at half-time in five of their last seven games.
Correct score prediction: Besiktas 3-1 Eyupspor
To be fair, Eyupspor have strung up a six-match unbeaten run across all competitions, with three wins and three draws. However, while they are coming off back-to-back draws, Arda Turan’s men are up against a Besiktas team that won five consecutive home games. Despite their best efforts, we believe that Eyupspor will not be able to hold their own against Besiktas.
Pre-game odds and win probability: Besiktas are overwhelming favourites
- HOME:2/5 (1.40) – 71.4%
- DRAW:17/5 (4.40) – 22.7%
- AWAY:5/1 (6.00) – 16.7%
*Odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change
Besiktas are currently on a 10-match unbeaten run across all competitions, with eight wins and two draws. They have also not lost a competitive game at home since March.
With that in mind, Giovanni Van Bronckhorst’s troops are the expected winners at 2/5 (1.40). Teams with these odds generally have a 71.4% probability of winning.

Player to watch: Ahmed Kutucu
Ahmed Kutucu was impressive in the TFF 1. Lig last season with 18 direct goal involvements in 21 league assignments. The former Schalke 04 and Istanbul Basaksehir player has picked up where he left off, registering a goal and three assists in five appearances in the Turkish top flight. Kutucu will be called upon to provide the goals as Eyupspor look to extend their unbeaten run on Sunday.
