Besiktas is considered the favourite in this pairing, as the team plays in a stronger league and has a lot of experience in European competitions. However, Lugano should not be underestimated, the first game in Switzerland ended 3-3, so the intrigue is still alive. Of course, the visitors are unlikely to win in Istanbul, but we still expect Lugano will be able to distinguish themselves, as the team is used to an aggressive style of play, with which Lugano constantly scored goals in European qualification.
Prediction: Lugano to score at least 2 goals. We recommend the “2 Over 0.5” bet, odds 1.66
