Our prediction is: Basaksehir to win the 1st half

While the half-time market is not a particularly popular betting market, it does provide a good deal of value. And this is true for Basaksehir vs Kocaelispor, where we have Basaksehir to win the first half as our best bet.

Basaksehir has been quite a fast starter at home as they quickly put the pressure on their visitors in the opening minutes. That strategy should lead to a Basaksehir taking an advantage into half-time.

Our prediction is: Under 2.5 goals in the match

It's hard to see too many goals in this match between Basaksehir and Kocaelispor given their lack of goalscoring ability.

That is why we project the total to go under 2.5 goals. So if 2 or fewer goals are scored, the bet wins.
