Turkey – Netherlands, Prediction – World Qualifiers

⬆️ Turkey is in bad shape compared to their performance in the Nations League

Turkey did its best in the European qualifiers and managed to qualify for the European Championship after finishing 2nd with only 1 loss in a group with France and Iceland, but only 2 points behind the French. After this remarkable performance, the Turks played with much less motivation and finished last in a group with Hungary, Russia and Serbia in the Nations League. Hasan Ali Kaldırım and Cengiz Ünder are the main absentees for the team in the match with the Netherlands, as well as in the next two qualifiers, and as usual the skipper Yilmaz and Tosun will lead the team’s attack.

⚽ The Dutch are impressive in their visits to the world qualifiers

The Netherlands did not win their group in the Nations League, remaining 1 point behind the winner, Italy. In their away games for world qualifiers, the tulips have 15 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses in their last 19 matches, the 2 losses being one after the other 4 years ago against Bulgaria and France, when it was the weakest period for the team in a very long time.

Turkey will take advantage of the problems in defense for the Netherlands

 Expert view: Pickford’s butcher’s kick in the Everton derby against Liverpool a few months ago deprived not only the Reds of their most important player, but also the Netherlands without their captain for the Euros, which is a huge blow. Besides van Dijk’s absence, Ake was not called because he had been recovering from an injury for a long time and the defense of the tulips doesn’t look very impressive with de Light and Blind. The Turks have been playing very attacking lately as 5 of their last 6 matches have gone through BTTS, and the same applies to the last 4 matches of the Netherlands. We believe that today we will see at least one goal in the 2 nets, because the strength of the guests is in scoring goals. Prediction – BTTS at 1.80.
