Match summary

Beşiktaş vs Kocaelispor in the Süper Lig on Sunday 11 October 2026 is a Matchday 7 meeting our model expects Beşiktaş to win, with Beşiktaş win or draw as the double chance.

Why this pick?

Our model expects Beşiktaş to win, mainly because it places them clearly higher than Kocaelispor on our long-run, xG-based strength rating; the hosts also sit well above the Süper Lig norm, while Kocaelispor are rated below it. The case for caution is that Kocaelispor are level on points and have conceded only four times in six league games. Even so, playing at Tüpraş Stadyumu tilts things further, and Beşiktaş's last-five averages show them creating more than the league average in shots, big chances and touches in the opposition box. They also concede fewer of both than most. The call is clear.
