Konyaspor 2 - 0 Beşiktaş
Beşiktaş 1 - 2 Gaziantep

Does anyone here really believe that Galatasaray will lose to Beşiktaş? Grin

If you think these two scores are the reason away team is favorite in a derby game, well, you know nothing about Turkish football. Of course Beşiktaş is the favorite at home in every derby. No matter current situation, home teams always are favorites in derbies. Another situation is, underdogs usually play better in derbies because of less stress and pressure. So I advise you to be careful on your bets.

I hope you didn't lose money betting with this wrong perspective, we warned you here. The two big rules worked again. In derbies in Türkiye, the home team always has the advantage. And underdog teams have a very high probability of winning. Today, contrary to the betting odds, Beşiktaş played superior and won.

Rafa Silva's goal was incredible. Torreira also scored a beautiful goal but Gedson had the last word. The difference could've been more, but the team wasn't very effective on offense. Especially Semih needs a lot of work in this regard. The game plan without Immobile was Ole's gamble, but he ended up winning. Congrats to Beşiktaş on another derby win.
