Beşiktaş go top with a game in hand after beating Erzurumspor
Following their derby win at Kadıköy, Beşiktaş also beat Erzurumspor FK comfortably at home to move to the top of the Süper Lig with a game in hand.
Beşiktaş hosted Erzurumspor FK on Friday 11 September in matchweek 5 of the Süper Lig and came away with a comfortable win.
Carrying the confidence of their derby victory at Kadıköy, the black-and-whites moved to the top of the table with a game in hand.
Beşiktaş's position at the summit will be reassessed once the weekend fixtures are played; the seven matches scheduled for Saturday and Sunday can reshape the standings directly.
FutbolRadar's assessment: the advantage Beşiktaş gained by playing early makes this a provisional lead. The picture will settle once the rest of the round has been completed.
