Super Lig: Two participants in fair shape get together for this match. Gaziantep F.K. could have a slight upper hand with their 6th place in the league table?

Insights:
  • Beşiktaş have the most points from losing position (13) in Super Lig
  • Gaziantep F.K. have the fewest dropped points from leading position (0) in Super Lig

Gaziantep F.K. have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1100 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
