Beşiktaş hosts Alanyaspor in the Turkish Super League, clear favorites. The hosts are fifth in the standings, enjoying good form with three wins in their last five league matches. Their attack looks confident, and their home stadium is a significant advantage.
Alanyaspor is at the bottom of the table, showing inconsistent results. The team has been struggling defensively, as evidenced by a recent 3-1 defeat to Ekopspor and three goals conceded against Fenerbahçe. Although the visitors are capable of scoring, their away form leaves much to be desired.
Given the difference in class, tournament motivation, and current form, Beşiktaş has every chance of winning, although Alanyaspor has always had a successful record against Beşiktaş in head-to-head matches. The team is looking to strengthen its position in the European Cup zone and will likely remember their 2-0 defeat in the first round, which will add motivation. Alanyaspor is unlikely to withstand the pressure on the road.
