Besiktas vs Club Brugge Prediction and Betting Tips | November 30th 2023

Besiktas will host Club Brugge at the Tupras Stadyumu on Thursday in another round of the 2023-24 UEFA Europa Conference League group stage campaign.

The home side have endured a poor run of results in the Conference League this season and have now crashed out of the competition. They were beaten 2-1 by Norwegian outfit Bodo/Glimt in their last match, finding themselves two goals down before Tayfur Bingol came off the bench to halve the deficit.

Besiktas sit rock-bottom in their group with just one point from an obtainable 12. They have nothing left to play for on the continental stage but will be targeting maximum points on Tuesday.

Club Brugge, meanwhile, have performed well in the European showpiece and are now pushing for a place in the last 16 of the competition. They beat Lugano 2-0 last time out in the tournament, with Igor Thiago scoring the game's opener before team captain Hans Vanaken doubled their advantage with a brilliant free-kick in additional time.

The visitors sit atop the Group D standings with 10 points from four games and will guarantee the top spot with a win on Thursday provided Bodo/Glimt fail to win elsewhere.
