Beşiktaş Face Başakşehir Test as Injuries Limit Italiano’s Options
Beşiktaş will host İstanbul Başakşehir at Tüpraş Stadium on Monday, October 26, with kick-off scheduled for 19:00 local time. The Black Eagles enter the ninth round of the Süper Lig with 15 points from eight matches, having recorded five wins and three defeats.
Vincenzo Italiano’s side will seek to respond to their league defeat at Trabzonspor after drawing 2–2 with Crystal Palace in Europe. Beşiktaş have conceded in each of their last six competitive matches, making defensive improvement another priority.
Injuries have complicated preparations. Orkun Kökçü remains under treatment, while Fabio Miretti suffered a shoulder injury against Palace. Beşiktaş’s medical announcement confirmed that treatment had begun; Turkish Football subsequently reported an estimated absence of four to six weeks. Defender Ümit Akdağ has also begun treatment for a fracture in his right hand. All three are expected to miss the Başakşehir fixture.
