Eagles host Gaziantep in game of night

ISTANBUL - Hürriyet Daily News

Beşiktaş will continue to try to put pressure on Galatasaray in the Spor Toto Super League, with a win over Gaziantepspor tonight.

The gap between the Black Eagles and the leaders was cut to five points after the weekend round of games, and they will try to maintain their winning run at the Fiyapı Inönü Stadium tonight.

Beşiktaş will have to cope with the relegation-battling side, who enjoyed a confidence-boosting 1-0 win over Mersin İdman Yurdu at the weekend.

Also tonight, Mersin will host Kayserispor, hoping to end its four-game losing streak.
Both games start at 8:30 p.m.

Earlier in the evening, fifth-place Sivasspor will host Antalyaspor and Samsunspor visits Manisaspor in a match between the relegation-battlers.

Both games start at 6 p.m.
