Goal Statistics

Besiktas's fans will be hoping for goals on Thursday night, not least because Marseille have conceded in each of their last 6 Europa League games. A PG of 1.7 for V. Italiano's side suggests that run should continue.

Besiktas's defensive record is to be admired, V. Italiano's men having conceded 1 or less in 6 consecutive Europa League matches. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.4 for Marseille makes sense in this context.
