Our prediction for this Europa League match:
Besiktas
Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 3-1
B36 Torshavn
Besiktas did well to beat B36 2-0 in Faroe Islands in the first leg of the Europa League third qualifying round. However, their job is only half done and the Turks need to take the return leg very seriously if they are to advance to round 3. Besiktas are likely to stick to their attacking style of play as they want to give fans yet another reason for celebration and we predict that they are going to prove their worth on the field. Pacey winger Jeremain Lens found the net in the 2-0 win over B36, meaning that the opposition defenders should have him at bay. David faces Goliath at Vodafone Stadyumu in Istanbul and we do not believe that the Faroe Islands outfit are going to make a miracle in Thursday’s football match. Taking everything into account, Besiktas are likely to record yet another win over B36.

Besiktas football club is one of the most successful teams in Turkey. Since its foundation in 1903, Besiktas have never been relegated to a lower rank of Turkish football.
