Alanyaspor and Besiktas are set to clash in the second round of the Turkish Super Lig. The home side opened their season with a 1-1 draw against Gaziantep, while Besiktas secured a narrow 1-0 home victory over Eyupspor. The visitors also had a midweek Europa League fixture, where they dismantled Lithuanian side Zalgiris 3-0 on Thursday.
Alanyaspor Tactical Analysis
In their first league outing, Alanyaspor shared the spoils with Gaziantep in a 1-1 stalemate. Despite enjoying only 39% possession compared to their opponent’s 61%, Rui Mota’s men created nearly as many chances. The expected goals (xG) figures were almost identical — 1.25 for Alanyaspor against 1.28 for Gaziantep — highlighting a balanced contest in terms of quality opportunities. The home side managed 11 shots but only two on target. Ruan opened the scoring in the first half, but Alanyaspor could not hold onto the lead. Gaziantep equalised after the break, and from that point, the hosts struggled to generate enough danger to reclaim the advantage.
The primary concern for Alanyaspor heading into this match is their work without the ball. In the first round, they willingly ceded possession and allowed the opposition to launch numerous attacks. Against a side like Besiktas, such a passive approach could prove far more costly, especially if the visitors quickly exploit gaps between the lines. On the positive side, Alanyaspor possess a credible counter-attacking threat. Ruan already found the net in the opener, while Guven Yalcin and Ibrahim Kaya have the pace and movement to exploit space behind the defenders. However, the squad has a notable absence: Yusuf Ozdemir is suspended for this fixture.
Besiktas Tactical Analysis
Besiktas kicked off their league campaign with a hard-fought 1-0 win over Eyupspor. They dominated the contest from start to finish, registering 66% possession, 19 shots, and five on target — in stark contrast to Eyupspor’s four attempts and just one on goal. The only goal was scored by Vaclav Cerny. A few days later, Besiktas produced an even more emphatic performance in the first leg of their Europa League playoff, thrashing Zalgiris 3-0. In that match, they controlled 75% of the ball, fired 21 shots, and generated an xG of 2.68, while their opponents managed only three attempts and a meagre 0.13 xG.
Vincenzo Italiano’s side holds a significant advantage in terms of match sharpness. Besiktas have already played six competitive fixtures this season, whereas Alanyaspor have only one behind them. Moreover, Besiktas have won all six of those games, scoring nine goals and — crucially — conceding none. The squad depth and physical conditioning allow Italiano to rotate players without a noticeable drop in quality. One player to watch is Leandro Trossard. The Belgian started against Zalgiris but was substituted off in the 73rd minute, replaced by Milot Rashica. It is likely that Trossard will either miss the upcoming match or begin it on the bench.
Prediction and Bet
Alanyaspor are certainly capable of causing Besiktas problems, particularly on home soil. They demonstrated against Gaziantep that they can create chances even when spending long periods without the ball. However, they also showed difficulties in converting those opportunities against a relatively modest opponent. Besiktas are a far stronger side, meaning Alanyaspor will likely have even fewer openings. The visitors look exceptionally solid: a controlled victory over Eyupspor, a comprehensive 3-0 win in Europe, and six consecutive matches without conceding a goal — this is no fluke. Besiktas will dictate the tempo and generate their own chances, though an away trip to Alanya after a European fixture could prove trickier than a home game against Eyupspor. Still, the form and depth favour the visitors. Bet: Besiktas to win at 1.86.
