  • Venue: Çaykur Didi Stadyumu

Besiktas continue their chase for a top four finish when they travel this week to Çaykur Didi Stadyumu where they will face Rizespor.

Rizespor were last in action on Sunday when they faced Goztepe at the Gürsel Aksel Stadium. İlhan Palut's side's away problems were once again evident as they conceded three goals without responding. Black Sea Sparrowhawk have now lost each of their last two away games without scoring, but their home record is very different. Rizespor have won five of their last six at home and will be looking to continue that form this week.

Besiktas have been unable to replicate their title-winning form of the 2020-21 campaign. The visitors finished sixth in two of the last three seasons and are currently in the same position. They go into Friday's game on a three-game losing streak and failed to win any of their last five Super Lig away games.

Rizespor vs Besiktas Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals

Rizespor failed to find the back of the net in their last encounter against Goztepe but they are ruthless in front of goal at home. The hosts boast at least three goals from each of their last four matches at this ground and bets on over 2.5 goals have won in each of the last five.

Meetings between Rizespor and Besiktas are also known for being entertaining. Five of the last six meetings produced 4+ goals and I fancy a similar outcome on Friday.
