REF’s picks

Istanbul Basaksehir hold a clear historical edge over Gaziantep and look well-equipped to cover the -0.75 handicap on home turf. Despite missing a few names, their attacking depth should comfortably break down a struggling visitor.

1. 1Basaksehir have dominated recent head-to-head meetings, winning four of the last five encounters.
2. 2Gaziantep arrive on a poor run with three defeats in their last five matches across all competitions.
3. 3Basaksehir could experience some midfield friction due to recent absentees, potentially slowing their rhythm early on.
