The Crescent Stars kicked off their campaign with an action-packed 3-1 win over Georgia on Tuesday evening. As such, Vincenzo Montella’s side have already put themselves in a strong position to reach the knockout round for the first time since 2008.

Meanwhile, Portugal had to dig deep to earn a 2-1 win against the Czech Republic at the Red Bull Arena. Francisco Conceicao’s stoppage-time strike secured all three points for the Selecao.

Turkey v Portugal Best Bets

➡️ Over 1.5 Portugal goals @ 1.57 with Paddy Power
➡️ Bernardo Silva to be fouled 1+ times @ 1.83 with Paddy Power

Portugal were pushed to their limits last time out but Turkey are unlikely to replicate the Czech Republic’s ultra-defensive approach. Thus, the opportunity to support the Selecao to score two or more goals appeals at 1.57 on Paddy Power.

Portugal have scored two goals or more in nine of their 11 competitive contests under Roberto Martinez’s watch, highlighting the value in siding with a repeat on Saturday evening. Turkey rode their luck at times against Georgia and star-studded Portugal are unlikely to be so wasteful when it comes to converting their chances.

Bernardo Silva earned Portugal a free kick on Tuesday night and the diminutive playmaker holds plenty of appeal to do so again here at 1.8 on Paddy Power. The Man City maestro was drawing an average of 0.90 fouls per game during the most recent Premier League season and he is one of many Portuguese players Turkey will be desperate to keep a lid on.

⚔️ Turkey v Portugal Head-to-Head

After coming up against each other at the play-off semi-final stage during qualifying for the 2022 World Cup, Turkey and Portugal will renew hostilities on Saturday. Portugal ran out 3-1 winners on that occasion and subsequently went on to secure their place at the Qatar showpiece. 

Prior to that clash, the pair hadn’t squared off against each other on the international stage since a friendly fixture way back in 2012.

Overall, Turkey and Portugal have gone toe-to-toe nine times, with the Turks triumphing just twice, while the Selecao have taken top honours seven times.

📊 Turkey Form and Stats

Turkey snapped their five-game winless streak with a confidence-boosting 3-1 win over Georgia on Tuesday.

While the Crescent Stars rode their luck at times to overcome the Crusaders, the underlying data suggest that they were worthy winners.

Vincenzo Montella’s men won the shot count 22-14 and registered eight efforts on target, in comparison to Georgia’s total of five. It’s worth noting though that 11 (50%) of Turkey’s attempts on goal against Georgia came from outside the box, one of which was a real moment of magic from Arda Guler.

However, it would be fair to say that Turkey looked shaky at times in their opening Group F fixture. Georgia hit the frame of the goal twice through Giorgi Kochorashvili and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia before squandering a gilt-edged opportunity to equalise late on.

Failing to keep the Crusaders at bay also means Montella’s side have now managed to keep just one clean sheet across their last seven matches.

📊 Portugal Form and Stats

Portugal’s hard-fought 2-1 win over the Czech Republic on Tuesday means that the Selecao have now won each of their last 11 competitive matches.

Having breezed through qualifying with 10 wins from 10, Roberto Martinez’s side had to roll their sleeves up to come from behind to bank maximum points against the Czech Republic.

Portugal dominated possession and peppered the Czech goal with a total of 19 shots, eight of which hit the target. However, the 2016 champions lacked composure in the final third against a Czech side who were content to sit in a low block and soak up pressure.

Unsurprisingly, Cristiano Ronaldo attempted more shots than any other Portuguese player on matchday one, three of which tested the goalkeeper.

Portugal’s Vitinha put in a real all-action display and covered every blade of grass for his country on Tuesday. The Paris Saint-Germain midfielder completed 91 passes, made two successful tackles and also earned his side three free kicks.
