In an important match on the way to the championship, who else is left on the path to the championship other than Galatasaray?

I don't think Fenerbahçe can catch up after this match. Galatasaray players and coaches are very focused, they want the cup. Instead of constantly looking for problems like other teams, they are concentrated on getting the best results from the matches. It was the same in the Sivas match today and Sivasspor managed to get three points by making a big difference.

Galatasaray are simply destroying Sivasspor home right now. It is 5-1. However this is no score to be surprised of.    By the way I see Ziyech really in solid form recently. He has scored 2 goals in the current game so far too.

Ziyech is really an interesting player. He missed many matches because of an injury but didn't play very consistently for a while too. However his recent performances are amazing to watch. He has been on loan though. Do you think Galatasaray will consider signing a permanent deal with him?    He is a quality player but I just have doubts about his contribution in the long term.

He is 31 years old by the way. Maybe he might get an offer from Saudi Arabia and he might want to take it and leave.

Samsunspor hosted Trabzonspor at home, needing points to stay clear of the danger zone, and they did just that by beating the Trabzonspor in the Süper Lig 3-1. Goals from Taylan Antalyali, Mouandilmadji, and an own goal by Joaquín Fernández sealed the win for them. For Trabzonspor, only goal were scored by Enis Bardhi in the 32th minute.

With this result, Samsunspor climbs to twelfth place with 42 points overall, while Trabzonspor will remain in third place in European spots with 58 points.

There is talk in the press about the possibility of Beşiktaş recalling Şenol Güneş. I think Şenol Güneş left Beşiktaş at a very right time. When Beşiktaş started to give bad signals, he said it was pointless to continue this job and left the club.

During the winter transfer window, Giovanni van Bronckhorst rejected Beşiktaş's offer. I'm not sure that quality coaches will want to work for Beşiktaş because some of them see Beşiktaş as a waste of time. I think Beşiktaş should try to sign young coaches who want to show themselves or people like Sergen Yalçın, who has already worn the Beşiktaş jersey as a footballer. That's why Sergen Yalçın is a good candidate for Beşiktaş but I don't know if he will accept the offer.

I also think Galatasaray will have an easy win. They entered this year like a bomb and are on their way to the championship with back-to-back wins. I would be very surprised if Sivasspor prevented them because Sivas had also made Fenerbahçe lose points in the past weeks. However, I know that Galatasaray will not make the same mistake as Fenerbahçe. They will continue to be very effective in scoring goals with Icardi.

Galatasaray will play Sivasspor today. It will be one of the most important games for us on the road to the championship. Okan Buruk warned the players before this match. Sivasspor have been getting good results in recent weeks. But I think they play a one-way game. I accept that they defend very well. But no team can win a match only by defending well. They defend well and look for goals with Manaj. This tactic will not bring a good result against Galatasaray. I think they have no chance in this match. I expect Galatasaray to get a comfortable win.

Samsunspor beat Trabzonspor 3-1 tonight.
Uğurcan should be punished because he acted against Samsunspor coach after the game.

Kayserispor - Fatih Karagümrük game ended in a draw, which is actually good for both teams because both teams need points.

Adana Demirspor won the game1-0, İstanbulspor has already been relegated from the league, it is okay for them even if they lose every game.

This week would be quite important week because it could basically decide on the winner. After this week there will be only 3 games left, which means that if Galatasaray wins again, the leftover points would be 9 points, if they get just 5 points in them, meaning even one win with 2 draws, they are still the champions. On top of that, even if they lose both games, but they win against Fenerbahce, they are still the winners as well, so it would be near impossible for them to lose after this point.

I am expecting them to win all four, they are doing pretty well, but usually teams who are on a long streak, end up losing to the most unexpected bad teams, and that may happen here too, which is why I feel fear when I am betting on them to win the game.

I dont agree with you. Because after a season worse than this, Galatasaray became title last seaon. The balance of power in our league changes very quickly. For next season, if Beşiktaş does well in the summer transfer period, it can become title next season. In addition, Beşiktaş currently have very quality and young players in Beşiktaş's squad such as Semih, Muçi, Gedson and Rashica.

Many fans criticised the team for being so happy for the win against a team like Rizespor. It is not a good indicator for Beşiktaş to be so happy with a goal in the last minute when it should have been a very easy win in an unimportant match. But it is normal to be like this with the excitement of the match. In general, Beşiktaş's situation is not getting better. Everyone is waiting for the season to end so that they can start working on the new season. Many players will be sent out. Expectations for the new season should be low because it is super hard to be successful after a season like this with this kind of squad.

Besiktas hosted Rizespor in one of the first matches of the Süper Lig (Matchday 35). The result was a thrilling 3-2 victory for Beşiktaş, a scoreline that benefits Besiktas in their quest for European spots. Besiktas' goals came from Omar Colley in the 7th minute, Millot Rashica in the 65th minute, and Joe Worrall in the 90+7th minute. For Rizespor, the goals were scored by Ibrahim Olayowin in the 5th minute and Emir Han Topcu in the 68th minute. It was an exciting encounter filled with remarkable goals.

This is the second time Serdar Topraktepe is working as a caretaker coach. I don't feel like Beşiktaş will prefer to continue with him next season as a permanent manager. They must be still thinking about who they can bring to the position this summer.

The first name that came to my mind was Sergen Yalçın. However would he be keen on coming here in this situation?    I mean Beşiktaş squad really needs to be improved if they are aiming for the Super League title. A big effort needs to be made this summer to be able to compete with Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe for a complete season. I don't know who it will be but they had better bring someone who knows this league well, maybe not a foreign coach too.

Hatayspor have parted ways with coach Volkan Demirel. They had successful results last season under Volkan Demirel. But this season they are in the relegation zone. And there are 4 weeks left in the season. They have suffered 4 defeats in their last 5 league matches. I think they were right to part ways with Volkan Demirel. Özhan Pulat was appointed to replace Volkan Demirel. He had previously worked as an assistant coach at Hatayspor. He was previously an assistant coach in Ömer Erdoğan's technical team. Also, he was the coach of Adanaspor at the beginning of this season.

Despite two penalties that weren't awarded, Beşiktaş played a very superior game and got an important win. Beating the referee if necessary, this team continues to intimidate all opponents. I'm sure that this performance will continue in the cup match this week.
Omar Colley is doing everything a stopper should do, contributing more than enough to the goal. Normally it's good for a stopper to score 4 goals, but in Beşiktaş, Colley carries this burden while the other defenders don't score. The wingers need to increase the number of goals and assists as well. The biggest problem this season has been the ineffectiveness in front of goal. Serdar Topraktepe seems to have solved this problem despite his limited squad. If he continues next year, I think he will do good things with a better squad.

 The Turkish Super Lig is one league that's been having a wide point margin between their title holder and the other teams but this season both top teams have actually been playing averagely and their end result is more or less thesame with a difference in just the goal margins. It's not so bad though but it'd mean that one team would have to put extra work to their game delivery if they want to secure the trophy.
 
 Fernabache and Galatasaray are good teams with good quality of players and both are capable of making the contest tough. But we await who'd be the greatest of them all. Galatasaray and Fernabache are making the struggle for the league trophy more difficult because they are giving thesame victory energy and aura, the points gathered, the goal differences, they're seemingly the toughest team in the league and their victory is so certain. Their elimination from the UEFA conference league tournament has even given them more time to prepare and focus on the last laps of the Turkish League games for the season.

 In a long while in the Turkish League, deciding the league's winner will take a while because these two teams are good at what they do. They play to win, and their next league game would undoubtedly end up as a victory for them both because their opponents are the opposite of them in all aspects. It's more or less a different situation for their bottom spotted teams though because these teams have managed to fight through points but it's all being in vain as they're so poor in performance and it's long been very certain that they're going to stay relegated.

We won in the end, it was a nice last minute win. We almost lost points again, the penalty that wasn't given is now normal. It was interesting to see Semih, Cenk and Aboubakar on the pitch at the same time. Playing with three strikers and zero wingers wasn't very effective, but the goal came after a set-piece. We need to reduce defense mistakes. It was important to get three points, we need to win the remaining games.

There is an Ankaragücü - Rizespor game tonight and this game will most likely end in a draw.
Ankaragücü definitely needs to get points in this game because there is a possibility of relegation to the lower league.
I think Rizespor will not win this game.

Today İddaa gave odds of 1.57 for a Beşiktaş win. Beşiktaş's mind will be on the cup match, but they shouldn't leave the league completely. We will see some rotation today. The team is already missing important players like Gedson and Al Musrati. Beşiktaş won 4-0 away in the first half of the league. Serdar Topraktepe was in charge of the team then too. Topraktepe will use the right tactics in this match and will succeed in winning the match. Again Semih Kılıçsoy will be the most effective goal weapon.
Beşiktaş will play three of their last four matches against the teams below them. These matches will have a direct impact on the final standings.

Every year, when the same unsuccessful team wins the championship through match-fixing and goes to the CL, naturally their real power emerges there and they come back after conceding 4 goals in every match. That's why you are unlikely to see a Turkish team that is successful in the European Cups. When match-fixing ends in the league, if the referees officiate matches properly, and if the federation's ties with politics are cut off, then maybe you can see a Turkish team that is successful in Europe. So what you are saying right now is completely a dream.

Semih Kılıçsoy is undoubtedly a very young and talented footballer. Without his good performances this season Beşiktaş would have been in a worse position in the league. If Beşiktaş still has a claim for the third place in the league, Semih Kılıçsoy has the biggest share in this. However, I don't think he will get an offer of 30 million euros because he would need to have a brilliant season in the European cups to get a 30 million euros offer. However, if he continues to perform at this level, I have no doubt that one day he will get a €30 million transfer offer.
