Following defeat at the hands of group favourites Dortmund on the opening day, Besiktas could have been forgiven for travelling to Amsterdam for their second Group C fixture in trepidation, considering Ajax's exploits in Lisbon.

The Dutch club continued where they left off after their first day 5-1 win, as they took a two-goal lead over the Turkish champions before half-time. Though Ajax ultimately had to settle for a 2-0 scoreline at the Johan Cruijff Arena, Beskitas were blown away, as they conceded 22 shots on goal and had just 29% of the ball.

Two defeats to start their campaign, then, leaves Sergen Yalcin's side needing to put points on the board quickly, as they approach a pair of potentially destiny deciding games against the Primeira Liga champions.

贝西克塔斯在揭幕战中负于小组赛热门多特蒙德，考虑到阿贾克斯在里斯本的表现，贝西克塔斯在C组的第二场比赛中战战心惊地前往阿姆斯特丹是情有可原的。

荷兰队在第一天5-1战胜土耳其队后，继续着他们在上半场结束前领先土耳其队2球的局面。尽管阿贾克斯最终在约翰·克鲁伊夫球馆以2比0的比分扳平了比分，但贝斯基塔斯却被击败了，他们失球22次，控球率仅为29%。

两场失利拉开了他们的比赛序幕，于是，瑟根·雅尔钦的球队需要迅速在棋盘上得分，因为他们即将面对两场可能决定命运的比赛。
