Lugano had luck in the previous round, while Besiktas only now appears in the UEL qualifiers, with them being free until now. This is the first leg of their clash, and whoever wins here will proceed to the Europa League group stage.
Lugano News
Lugano was better than Partizan in the previous round despite losing at home in the regular 90 minutes, 1-2. The Swiss unit scored a game-winner in the extra time, thus advancing to meet Besiktas. Following this game, they had one more in the Swiss Cup, where they demolished Bruhl 1-7.
This team plays offensive-minded football, with plenty of action in front of both nets. Only one of their latest five meetings didn’t end with scores on both sides and at least three goals.
Besiktas News
Besiktas opened the season strong, with three wins in Turkey, one of which was in the Super Cup over a great rival and the current champions, Galatasaray. The result of this event was 5-0 for the Eagles, who later had impressive performances, too.
They went on the road to beat Samsunspor 0-2 and then trashed Antalyaspor at Vodafone Arena 4-2. Besiktas has one of the best Italian strikers ever, Ciro Immobile now, and that’s a major plus for the black and whites.
Lugano vs. Besikitas Head to Head
Last season, the two sides met in the Conference League group stage. Lugano beat the Turks in Istanbul 2-3 but lost at home 0-2.
Lugano vs. Besiktas Betting Tip
The Swiss side knows they need to secure an advantage at home and try to score as many goals as possible. On the other hand, Besiktas is very potent in the attack, and they won’t change their usual aggressive, offensive style of play. This game should include at least three goals, and that’s our pick here.
Betting Tip: Over 2.5 goals
