Beşiktaş form and stats
Four points from two away games for Beşiktaş, meaning one draw and one victory in the Super Lig so far.
Beşiktaş's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Adana Demirspor that finished 3-3. Drawing 3-3 against Adana Demirspor after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 3-0. Their manager A. Yalçın needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result. A loony match with masses of goals last time out for Beşiktaş, as mentioned above. 6 goals in that game, will this game be as enjoying? Defender Rıdvan Yılmaz was the best team player with a rating of 8.44. Yılmaz scored one goal, served one assist, hit one key pass and won 7 of 10 duels.
Ahead of that match was the victory versus Antalyaspor at their stadium, the result 3-2.The schedule is very tough for Beşiktaş now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Champions League game at Ajax is waiting in only four days.
Beşiktaş have the goal stats of 3-2 (for/against) from 2 business trips in the league at this early stage of the season.
