Impact Montero was one of Besiktas' few positives here, racking up some nice defensive stats despite of the huge 5-0 defeat. The centre back finished his European campaign with seven tackles, 17 clearances, eight interceptions and six blocks over four starts.

Ersin Destanoglu - Concedes five in loss Destanoglu made two saves and conceded five goals during Tuesday's 5-0 Champions League loss against Borussia Dortmund.

Impact Destanoglu was back in the net after being benched on the previous match, but had an even worse outing than any other he had during group play, being beaten twice in the first half and three more times during the final frame. The goalkeeper finished his European campaign this season with 20 saves and 17 goals allowed over five starts.

Impact Gunok made his UCL debut this season and had a strong first half, but then Sebastien Haller came in at halftime to find the back of the net twice and give the opposition a 2-1 come-from-behind win. The goalkeeper will hope to remain in the starting XI for Dec. 7 visit to Borussia Dortmund.

Miralem Pjanic - Creates three chances in loss Pjanic had one off-target shot, created three chances, sent in three crosses (two accurate) and drew four fouls during Wednesday's 2-1 loss against Ajax.

Impact Pjanic showed his usual class in the middle of the park, being Besiktas' main initiator on the offensive end and racking up a team-high three chances created. With his side already eliminated from European competition this year, the midfielder will finish his campaign during Dec. 7 visit to Borussia Dortmund.

Michy Batshuayi - On bench Wednesday Batshuayi (thigh) will be available as a substitute versus Ajax on Wednesday.

Impact Batshuyi is back in the squad after missing the previous UCL matchup versus Sporting CP on Nov. 3 but will have to settle for a reserve role.

Fabrice N’Sakala - Ruled out Wednesday N'Sakala will be unavailable versus Ajax on Wednesday with an undisclosed injury, per UEFA.com.

Impact N'Sakala started the club's first three Group Stage contests before watching from the sidelines as an unused substitute against Sporting CP on Nov. 3. In those three contests, the defender registered 11 crosses (five accurate), six tackles (three won) and three clearances. Domagoj Vida should be an option to replace N'Sakala in the starting XI on Wednesday.

Georges-Kevin N’Koudou - Back from injury Nkoudou has come off the bench in the last few matches for Besiktas, returning from a two-month injury.

Impact Nkoudou is an option to play on the wing, but he doesn't have a ton of starts this season, partly because of injury. The former Marseille, Tottenham and Burnley player could find his way onto the pitch against Ajax, though a full 90 shouldn't be expected.
