Besiktas vs Kirklarelispor Prediction and Betting Tips | February 4th 2025

Besiktas will host Kirklarelispor at the Tupras Stadyumu on Tuesday evening in the second round of the 2024-25 Turkiye Kupasi group-stage campaign. The hosts will hope to build on their good start to the domestic cup season by getting the win over a much weaker side.

Besiktas opened their cup campaign with a narrow 1-0 win over Sivasspor in the first round of the league stages in January and will be looking to potentially go top of the table with a win on Tuesday. The hosts, who are unbeaten in their last six domestic games, have been unconvincing in their few games under newly hired manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and will view this midweek fixture as a chance to build momentum.

Kirklarelispor’s loss in the Nesine 2. Lig on Saturday marked their fourth consecutive game without a win including an incredibly thrilling 4-4 draw against Bodrum in the opening round of the cup in early January. The visitors, who are currently 10th in the Turkish third division, knocked out Super Lig team Adana Demirspor in the qualification rounds of the domestic cup but will be up against a much tougher opponent when they take a trip to Istanbul to face the defending champions.
