There, the team has not achieved much success and is outside the playoff zone. In the domestic championship, Besiktas is again experiencing difficulties and is only sixth. The hosts are two points behind the top 4. After losing to Bodo-Glimt in the Europa League (1:2), the club lost to the main outsider, Adana Demirspor (1:2), in the Super League.

2.25Tip and bets
The hosts are not in the best shape now, but even in this state, Besiktas should beat an opponent like Alanyaspor. The favorite needs points to return to the fight for the top three, so the mood will be only for victory. We believe that the "black and whites" will be able to take three points from one of the contenders for relegation from the Super League.
Our forecast is Besiktas victory in 1.65
Bet on total
The hosts will clearly prioritize the result over the number of goals scored. We believe that the favorite will first and foremost try to defend well against Alanyaspor, as the visitors' attack works quite well. Nevertheless, Besiktas is quite capable of keeping a clean sheet against the underdog if it manages to avoid mistakes. Most likely, there will be no more than two goals in this match.
Our prediction is total under three goals for 1.87
Bet on corners
Most likely, the hosts will be able to seize the initiative in the match, which should lead to a solid advantage in corner kicks.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-1.5) on Besiktas for corners at 1.85
