Besiktas - Ajax (Over 1,5 in the first half) 
For the 5th match of the 3rd group of the Champions League, Besiktas welcomes Ajax at Vodafon Park in Istanbul.
Tragic course of Besiktas in the group, counts 4 defeats in an equal number of matches accompanied by bad performances and has inevitably lost all hope of continuing in the autumn on European soil. In its last match, it lost to Sporting Lisbon 4-0., affected beyond the poor state of play in which he has been for a long time and by the many absences he had. He could even have lost with a bigger score as until 56΄ the hosts had scored 4 times but in the last half hour they turned around.
In the Turkish championship, it comes from a 2-0 defeat at the headquarters of Alanyaspor which was the 3rd consecutive and has now dropped to 9th place with 20 points, minus 13 by the champion Trabzonspor.
Extremely opposite course of Ajax from its current opponent, counts 4 wins in 4 matches and essentially has the upper hand in the group. In the last match, it prevailed in Germany Dortmund with 3-1 despite the fact that he closed the half back in the score. In the replay he took advantage of the fact that he had a numerical advantage and being better than his opponent he scored 3 times in the last twenty minutes and made the upset.
In the domestic championship he returned to victories, after consecutive draws, beating Valvaik 5-0 away from home. So remained at the top of the standings, on a par with Eindhoven, with 30 points after 13 games.
Besiktas is disappointing not only in the group but also its overall presence so far throughout the season. Unlike Ajax who impresses by combining results and nice football. I expect matches without expediency, the hosts will try to entertain the impressions, the Dutch even if they are comfortable in terms of points will go for the victory. A match with aggressive moods is expected from both sides, fear that in the replay the pace may drop, I will bet on the goals in the first part.
Proposal: Besiktas - Ajax Over 1,5 in the first part
