We’ve arrived at the final day of the Turkish Super Lig season and what a journey it’s been. There have been highs and lows for all 20 clubs in the top flight and as we look ahead to Sunday, it’s clear to see that there’s still plenty left to be decided in this division. Today, we’ll be taking a look at what promises to be a fascinating clash between Kasimpasa and Besiktas.
Kasimpasa Form GuideStability is a hard thing to come by at the elite level of Turkish football but somehow, Kasimpasa have been able to achieve that goal. They aren’t the best club to rely on when it comes to consistent betting success but what they can offer is a different approach to how football is played by teams in the Super Lig, and that often makes for entertaining viewing - so long as they can stay on track.
It’s mathematically possible for Kasimpasa to overtake Besiktas and leapfrog them into 5th here but in reality, they’ll probably be looking over their shoulder instead. A top six finish would be a great step forward for them, but they could easily slip down to 8th if they aren’t careful.
Besiktas Form GuideFor as long as we can remember, Besiktas have been one of the biggest names in town in Turkish football. They’ve had many, many European adventures against some of the biggest clubs on the continent, and they’ve been able to do that courtesy of domestic success. Now, the challenge for them is going to be getting back to a position of real prominence in their homeland.
Besiktas were able to win the Turkish Cup and because of that, we imagine that they’ll be pretty relaxed heading into the final day. Yes, they sit in 5th and yes, it’d be nice for them to make it up to the top four, but there’s very little pressure on them now after their triumph.
Match PredictionOn the final day of the season, you can throw the rule book swiftly out of the window. There’s so much on the line and with the stakes being that high, and with these sides being confident going forward, we can’t see an outcome other than over 2.5 goals scored and a whole lot of entertainment for neutrals.
