Beşiktaş has advanced to the league phase of the UEFA Europa League after eliminating Kauno Zalgiris in the play-off round. The black-and-white team had won the first leg 3-0.
Dusan Vlahovic, one of the star players for Beşiktaş this season, started in the starting 11 for the first time in a black-and-white jersey. Kartal Kayra Yılmaz took the field as captain.
