Samsunspor vs Besiktas Prediction and Betting Tips | November 26th 2023 

Samsunspor will host Besiktas at the Samsun 19 May Stadium on Sunday in another round of the 2023-24 Turkish Super Lig campaign.

The home side have struggled for results on their return to the top-flight this season and currently find themselves in the drop zone. They were beaten 1-0 by fellow newly-promoted outfit Pendikspor in their last game and perhaps deserved more from the game after a dominant second-half display.

Samsunspor sit 19th in the league table with eight points from 12 games. They will now be looking to begin picking up important points this weekend in a bid to avoid an impending relegation tussle.

Besiktas have also had their struggles in the league this season prompting the departure of head coach Senol Gunes. Rıza Çalımbay has now been appointed as the new boss and led the Black Eagles to a 1-0 victory over İstanbul Başakşehir in his first game in charge.

The visitors sit fifth in the table with 22 points. They are nine points behind rivals Fenerbahce and Galatasaray at the top of the pile and will be looking to reduce that gap on Sunday.
