Wales Aiming to Bounce Back from Shock Defeat as They Travel to Turkey
2193

The second round of 2024 European Championship qualifying fixtures in this international period includes the meeting between Turkey and Wales.

The game will be played at the Samsun Stadium and the hosts are currently top of Group D on 6 points while the visitors are in 3rd place on 4 points.

Turkey come into the match on the back of a thrilling 3-2 win in Latvia on Friday night. The Turks opened the scoring in the 23rd minute but conceded the equaliser 6 minutes into the second half.

Turkey reclaimed the advantage in the 61st minute but it seemed Latvia would get a point when they equalised in the 93rd minute. Turkey did not give up and scored the winning goal just one minute later.

The win in Latvia means Turkey have won 4 of their 5 most recent fixtures in all competitions. In addition to the win over Latvia, there was a 2-1 victory in European Championship qualifying at Armenia plus friendly wins over Scotland and Czech Republic at home.

In terms of European Championship qualifiers, Turkey are undefeated in 8 of their last 9 matches. They are difficult to beat when playing at home and Turkey are undefeated in 9 of their 10 most recent European Championship qualifying matches on home soil.

Trends show they have been under 2.5 goals scored in 6 of their last 7 home European Championship qualifiers.

Wales travel to the Samsun Stadium having suffered a shock 4-2 home defeat at the hands of Armenia on Friday night in Group D. Wales started the match as the clear favourites to win and opened the scoring after only 10 minutes. Armenia got one back in the 19th minute and took the lead 11 minutes later.

Armenia extended their advantage in the 66th minute and despite getting one back in the 72nd minute, Wales conceded a fourth goal to lose the match.

The loss to Armenia means Wales have recorded just a single victory from their last 11 fixtures in all competitions.

In addition to the loss at home against Armenia, there have been defeats against Iran and England at the 2022 World Cup plus Netherlands, Belgium, and Poland in the Nations League.

Trends show Wales are undefeated in 7 of their last 8 European Championship qualifiers and in each of their last 3 European Championship qualifying games on the road.

Team news and Turkey could go with the same starting XI from the match in Latvia. Barış Alper Yılmaz and Eren Elmalı are pushing for a place in the team.

Wales will be without suspended striker Kieffer Moore following his red card against Armenia and defender Ben Davies. Neco Williams and Joe Morrell could come into the defence and midfield, respectively.

Wales were poor against Armenia but Turkey needed a late strike to beat Latvia on Friday. Therefore, we could see this match end level, with under 2.5 goals scored.
