Turkey hosts Croatia in a friendly international match. The match will be played on Wednesday, November 11th at Vodafone Park (Istanbul)
After Senol Gunes returned to the post of head coach, the Crescent-Stars managed to succeed last year. The team that failed under Mircea Lucescu was able to spoil the nerves even of the French. And the Turks won a ticket to the Euro quite confidently. However, there is such an impression that they lack motivation for the Nations League, or they simply have no luck - not a single victory in five matches in September-October. On the other hand, the past cycle of matches cannot be called a failure. The national team of Turkey managed to gain a spectacular draw against Germany away (3:3), and then there were draws with Russia (away 1-1) and Serbia (at home 2-2) in the Nations League. The Turks will continue the struggle for a place in Division B with the latter.

Recently, the Croats showed the best result in their history, reaching the final of the World Cup in Russia. Such veterans as Ivan Rakitic and Luca Modric made a lot for that success. Most likely, Ivan planned to leave after Euro this summer, but the tournament was postponed for a year. And the veteran decided to focus on performances for Sevilla, where he moved in September. Modric also rested at the start of the new cycle of the Nations League, so the Croats started with defeats to Portugal and France. Luca returned to the team in October, and Zlatko Dalic's men managed to gain victory over Switzerland in a friendly match (2:1) and beat Sweden in the official one. The Croats also fought with France in Zagreb. Nevertheless, Didier Deschamps' men won again. Vlašić, who is playing an increasingly important role for the Checkered Ones, leveled the score in the 64th minute, but the French have Mbappé, who brought the victory.
For both teams, this match is just a warm-up before important meetings in the Nations League, and there is no point in spending much effort. Moreover, the Croats were left without key attackers, Kramaric and Rebić. We think that the match won’t please us with an abundance of goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored
