Besiktas vs Alanyaspor tips and predictions

Tough assignment for Alanyaspor

Alanyaspor are certainly up against it in this clash but they can win. It's just a bit of fun this one as there is just no value in the home win price. This preview isolates the most important goal scoring stats in order to identify the best value; which is the away win.

With some uncharacteristic outings, the hosts will be more motivated this time out. Besiktas's performances at home haven't all been vintage. They've been goalless in 2 of their last 8 games on their own turf which is a stat that will give fans of the upset some optimism. There have been a few concerns about Besiktas's defence. They conceded at least once in 15 of their last 18 home matches. Maybe this lends analytical credibility to the away team.

Alanyaspor have actually got a win in 7 of their last 19 trips away. Written off by many, the visitors will embrace this challenge. Notably they've scored two or more goals in 9 of their last 13 games which is something they'll have to build on to have any chance of doing the business here. Their recent defensive displays could be a key for them too. They have kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 11 matches.

It could be a case of any port in a storm and the visitors will feel they've exceeded expectations if they end up with parity. The sportsbooks' prices indicate that neither side will keep a clean sheet during this match despite the favouritism for Besiktas. It's not a strong view but the BTTS No looks more tempting for this encounter. And if you're interested in the goal line, it's no more than one goal for this one given the current prices.
