Why Over 2.5 Goals Is Better Than Both Teams To Score

Rooted to the bottom of Group H of the competition after two games, Istanbul Basaksehir are in something of a tailspin. Losing their opening two games by a combined 4-0 score-line, these ones cannot grab a win to save their lives.

Meanwhile, Manchester United have enjoyed a blistering start to their Champions League campaign, picking up maximum points from their fixtures to sit atop the standings. Another positive result here, and United will be inches away from making the last-16.

Istanbul Basaksehir vs Manchester United Team News

Known to be juggernauts in the Turkish Super Lig, Istanbul Basaksehir comfortably steamrolled to the top of the standings to clinch the league title last season. For the umpteenth time in their history, this side laid their hands on that prestigious piece of silverware.

Slow off the blocks this time around, the Istanbul-based club are floundering, by their standards. After seven games, they have only a measly 11 points to their name, and are already seven points adrift the summit.

Surely, Buruk’s charges have to turn a corner sooner rather than later. Their Champions League form isn’t any better as they remain winless in the competition. As early as it is in the campaign, they are already favorites to finish at the bottom of Group H.

Last time out, they were comfortably dispatched 2-0 by hungry French side PSG, even in Turkey. Moving on from that defeat, Basaksehir saved face with a narrow 2-1 win over Konyaspor in the domestic league. They will be seeking their first CL points when they take on Man United here.

Struggling to find their feet in the Premier League, Manchester United are already floating in the relegation waters with six games gone by. Placed fifteenth on the log, the Red Devils have garnered a disappointing seven PL points so far.

However, United’s Champions League form has been nothing short of sensational. Following their headline-grabbing 2-1 victory over PSG in the opening fixture, the Red Devils went on to score an emphatic 5-0 win over German giants RB Leipzig.

Confidence levels is pretty high in Man United’s camp as they target another victory in this upcoming contest to maintain their 100% winning start in Europe. Should they guard against complacency, Solskjaer’s men will have enough about themselves to brush their Turkish counterparts aside.

Injured or Suspended Players

Istanbul Basaksehir: Junior Caicara, Muhammed Sengezer, Nacer Chadli, Mahmut Tekdemir and Enzo Crivelli.

Basaksehir vs Man United Predictions

While Basaksehir’s struggles are in the Turkish Super Lig and Champions League, Man United are grappling to hit their high marks only in the Premier League. On the European scene, they are on cloud-nine.

From all angles, we cannot seem to find Basaksehir salvaging anything substantial from this fixture. Fancy the Red Devils to stroll to success, keeping a clean sheet in the process.
