Besiktas and Wolves go head-to-head in the Europa League this week
Wolves go again in the Europa League following a false start in their group stage adventure.
Nuno Espirito Santos’ side were narrowly defeated 1-0 by Braga at Molineux, now they must make a tricky trip to Turkey for a showdown with Besiktas.
Wolves have struggled to find their feet in the 2019/20 Premier League season so far, but a 2-0 win over struggling Watford should provide them with a boost.
The Midlands side will look to Raul Jimenez and Diogo Jota for inspiration with neither striker in full-flow as the season enters October.
Besiktas were toppled in a shock defeat to Slovan Bratislava in their opening Europa League match despite racking up 72 per cent possession in the game.
Georges-Kevin Nkoudou, Adem Ljajic, Abou Diaby, Mohamed Elneny and Loris Karius were among the starters for Besiktas in that game, and will give Wolves fans an idea of what to expect from their opponents.

Wolves are still in second gear with their attacking forces yet to really get going.
On top of Jota and Jimenez, new signing Patrick Cutrone is yet to have a real impact and their combined lack of goals is a real concern.
However, for all Wolves’ lack of sharpness, they are rarely bowled over and will put up a decent fight on the road.
Prediction: Besiktas 1-1 Wolves
