Fan Banter Prediction

90-minute pick: Beşiktaş to win, 2–1. Their seven league-phase points and slightly stronger recent points return make Beşiktaş our choice. Celtic’s higher recent scoring total is a reason to expect a contest; the scoreline is an editorial prediction, not a statistical forecast.
