Başakşehir edge Gaziantep in tight tussle

Shomurodov and Güneş secure a narrow home victory.

Başakşehir claimed a 2-1 win over Gaziantep FK in a closely contested Süper Lig match. E. Shomurodov's early strike set the tone, but S. Dursun's equaliser after the break kept Gaziantep in the hunt. U. Güneş's decisive goal in the 81st minute sealed the victory for Başakşehir. Fipster's low-confidence prediction of a home win was on the money, though the exact scoreline proved a bit optimistic.
