Besiktas are back in action in the Turkish Super Lig as they journey to the Bahcesehir Okullari Stadium to face Alanyaspor on Sunday. The two sides are separated by one place and five points in the top half of the table and we anticipate a thrilling contest.

Alanyaspor suffered a major setback in their push for European football as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Ankaragucu last Friday.

Before that, Fatih Tekke’s men were on a run of two back-to-back victories, including a 6-0 demolition of Istanbulspor on April 28.

With 49 points from 35 matches, Alanyaspor are sixth in the Super Lig table, level on points with Kasimpasa and Caykur Rizespor.

Having played out a goalless draw in the reverse leg, Besiktas secured a 1-0 second-leg win over Ankaragucu on Tuesday to book their spot in the Turkish Cup final.

Serdar Topraktepe’s side now turn their attention to the Super Lig, where a run of just two wins in their last eight games has threatened to derail their push for a place in Europe.

Besiktas are fifth in the league table, one point behind fourth-placed Istanbul Basaksehir in the UEFA Europa Conference League qualification spot.
