A winning start is what Besiktas is aiming for
Turkish champions Besiktas are making their long-awaited return to the Champions League. In fact, this is the Turk’s first appearance since the 2017/18 season at the UCL group stages. Prior to the start of this season, coach Sergen Yalcin brought in several new players in an attempt to advance from the group.
In their first match, the Black Eagles host Dortmund, to whom the Turks lost both H2Hs. Moreover, Besiktas won just two of their 11 matches against German teams in the Champions League. To make things worst, Yalcin’s team won just one of their previous ten home UCL matches. Ultimately this could be a long evening for the Turks.
Besiktas Key Points
Borussia Dortmund’s encouraging form may get them their first three points
Visiting Dortmund arrive in Istanbul on the back of an exciting 4-3 win away to Leverkusen. In addition, the BVB won three of their four Bundesliga games this season. Hence, coach Marco Rose’s team are in good form. But Rose faces a huge number of injuries, ten to be exact which may limit the coach’s selection.
Indeed, Dortmund fans are expecting many goals from their team. With Haaland and co scoring more than three goals in nine of their 11 matches, it is hard to seek less. Remarkably, the BVB failed to score in just one of their last 15 UCL matches. Additionally, Rose’s team is unbeaten in their last five UCL group stage matches. Hence Dortmund are eying a winning start.
