Turkey vs. Croatia Tips & Quotas, 11/11/2020 – 18:45
On Wednesday evening, 11.11.2020 at 18:45, the national teams of Turkey and Croatia will test their current form in Besiktas Park before the last group matches in the UEFA Nations League. The Bosphorus footballers have not won any international football in 2020 and played their last game in the NL last month at home against Serbia. In the end, the points were shared. The Vatreni lost to France in their own stadium a few weeks ago and is not really getting off to a good start in the NL group A3 either.

The national team of Senol Günes proved moral in the last competitive match against Serbia. On the 4th day of the Nations-League-Group B3 the Turks were already 0-2 behind. Guests led by Milinkovic-Savic header goal 1-0 (21st), before Mitrovic went up to 2-0 (49th) by foul yard shortly after the break. Former Bundesliga pro Hakan Calhanoglu scored an important 1-2 (56th) for the home team. In the final phase, the goal reached the 2-2 final (76th, Tufun) and thus the second bankruptcy in the ongoing competition was prevented.
The Günes-Elf is still without victory in the NL group stage and last played draw three times in a row. The opening game of the new season was lost to Hungary in their own stadium (0-2). In Serbia (0:0) and Russia (1:1), two points were divided. Turkey is currently third in the group (3 points) ahead of Serbia (2) and behind Russia (8) and Hungary (7).
Three days before the international match against Serbia, Turkey played a friendly against Germany in Cologne and showed great comeback qualities there. The DFB team took the lead three times and the outsider was able to equalise three times – Tufun (49th), Karaca (67th) and Karaman (94th) were the goalscorers.
The Turkish national team is qualified for THE EURO 2021 and will meet Switzerland and Wales in Group A. At the last European Championships, the tournament for the Turks was over after the preliminary round. There were two defeats against Croatia (0:1) and Spain (0:3). The 2-0 victory in the last group match against the Czech Republic brought nothing more.
Caglar Söyüncü (Leicester City), Mahmut Tekdemir (Basaksehir FK) and Abdülkadir Ömür (Trabzonspor) will be out on Wednesday due to injury.

The vice world champion received the world champion in the Nations League and the French cheered early on about Griezmann’s 1-0 goal (8th). After that there were no goals for a long time and the national team of Zlatko Dalic only equalised in the second round through Vlasic to 1:1 (64th). In the shooting phase, the quality made the difference again. World-class striker Kylian Mbappe scored a 2-1 victory for the Tricoloe team (79th). The Vatreni is in third place in front of pointless Sweden with three counters after four NL games. Ranked number one in Group A3, Portugal holds 10 in front of equal-point French.
The Dalic team had a bad start to the Nations League with two opening runs in Portugal (1:4) and France (2:4). On the 3rd day of the match, the Croats celebrated their first victory at home against Sweden (2-1). With the same result, the vice world champion beat Switzerland away three days before the French game and was actually well equipped for the duel with the world champion.
Croatia will take part in the final round of the European Championships and play in Group D. So far, England and the Czech Republic have been determined as opponents. The third team is still playing in the European Championships playoffs. More than four years ago, the Vatreni survived the group hatred – Turkey (1:0), the Czech Republic (2:2), Spain (2:1) as group winner, before losing to the later European champion Portugal (0:1 A.D.) in the quarter-finals.
Andrej Kramaric (TSG Hoffenheim) is no longer injured, but is still behind in training. Whether the forward can be fed with flanks and passes from Real Madrid star Luka Modric is still unclear.

The national teams of Turkey and Croatia have to improve in the last two group games of the Nations League, otherwise there is a risk of premature exit and perhaps even relegation to the B or even C league. In the last friendship games, the Günes-Elf scored 3-3 against Germany significantly better than in the obligatory matches. The vice world champion was also able to convince in the test in Switzerland last month (2:1).
