Team news & squads

Besiktas team news

The number of injuries that Besiktas has had to deal with this year has played a significant role in their decline, and they are expected to be without as many as eight players for this crucial match.

Bakhtiyor Zaynutdinov will start as left-back since Arthur Masuaku is away with DR Congo for AFCON 2023 and Umut Meras is injured. Long-term absentees include Amir Hadziahmetovic (muscle), Emrecan Uzunhan (ACL), and Alex Oxlade Chamberlain (torn thigh muscle).

Vincent Aboubakar, who had been banished to the reserves, is with the Cameroon national team for the AFCON 2023.

Salih Ucan and Onur Bulut are both ruled out for this clash as well. Emrecan Uzunhan is training with the team but this game may come too soon. Mert Gunok has served his suspension and will return to the starting XI.

Besiktas possible XI: Gunok; Svensson, Uysal, Colley, Zaynutdinov; Amartey, Ghezzal, Fernandes; Rashica, Tosun, Kilicsoy

Trabzonspor team news

Mislav Orsic sustained a cruciate ligament tear and will be unavailable until late February. Huseyin Turkmen has not featured at all this term but has returned to training in recent weeks.

Trezeguet and Nicolas Pepe have travelled to AFCON 2023 with their respective teams, and Paul Onuachu is also at AFCON 2023 representing Nigeria, so Enis Destan will continue to lead the attack.

Joaquin Fernandez will start at the back as Filip Benkovic is injured. Abdulkadir Omur has been demoted to the reserves after requesting to be put on the transfer list. He is not expected to feature here.

Trabzonspor possible XI: Cakir; Aydin, Baniya, Denswil, Elmali; Mendy, Ozdemir; Visca, Bardhi, Fountas; Destan
