Besiktas vs Lausanne prediction

Former Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer remains under pressure in charge of Besiktas, despite the Istanbul giants having majorly improved under this management. They are in a tricky spot in this tie, though, after they shared a 1-1 draw with Lausanne in Switzerland in the first-leg of this tie last week, with Milot Rashica opening the scoring after 45 minutes, before centre-back Bryan Okoh snatching an equaliser in the 83rd minute. 

Besiktas were beaten by Shakhtar Donetsk in the UEFA Europa League last month, before they then comfortably defeated Saint Patrick’s Athletic in the third qualifying round.

Lausanne are heading to Turkey with a knowledge that Besiktas are there to be made frustrated, but the Turks have to remain favourites to reach the league phase.
