Turkey vs Portugal predictions

Portugal were perfection personified in Euro 2024 qualifying, winning all ten of their matches, but Roberto Martinez's men almost stumbled at the first hurdle at the finals.

The Group F favourites needed a 92nd-minute goal from substitute Francisco Conceicao to seal a 2-1 comeback win over the Czech Republic while Turkey beat Georgia 3-1 in the other game in the section.

An entertaining Portugal victory could be on the cards against Turkey, who arrived at the Euros on a five-match winless run which included a 6-1 friendly rout by Austria in March.

They snapped that streak against tournament debutants Georgia thanks to a couple of stunning strikes from right-back Mert Muldur and Real Madrid youngster Arda Guler.

However, Georgia caused the Turkish defence plenty of problems and the victory was only sealed by Kerem Akturkoglu's 97th-minute breakaway goal after the Georgian goalkeeper had come forward to make a mischief of himself at a corner.

There were 36 shots in that game – 22 for Turkey and 14 for Georgia – and Portugal will be hoping for a similarly open contest on matchday two. 

They struggled to break down a stifling Czech defence despite having more than 73 per cent of possession and needed a fortunate own goal to equalise Lukas Provod's excellent 62nd-minute opener.

Portugal's all-round performance meant Conceicao's late winner was well deserved. Provod's strike from outside the box was the Czechs' only shot on target while Portugal tested the goalkeeper eight times and Martinez's substitutions showcased the depth of attacking talent in his squad.

Wolves winger Pedro Neto set up fellow sub Conceicao for the decisive goal shortly after Liverpool's Diogo Jota, who also came off the bench, had a header ruled out for offside.

There are goal threats all over the pitch for Portugal, whose wingers Rafael Leao and Bernardo Silva were both bright in the opening game.

Veteran centre-back Pepe was the only starting outfield player not to register at least one shot against the Czechs and the central-midfield partnership of Vitinha and Bruno Fernandes worked well.

Turkey's defensive plans were disrupted by pre-tournament injuries to Caglar Soyuncu and Ozan Kabak and they could easily have conceded more than once against Georgia, whose midfielder Giorgi Kochorashvili hit the crossbar after dancing through the heart of their defence.

However, teenage wingers Guler and Kenan Yildiz, who impressed in his first season at Juventus, are clearly at home on the big stage and they can help Turkey land a blow on the Portugal rearguard.

The favourites have beaten Sweden 5-2 and Finland 4-2 in friendlies this year, also losing 2-0 to Slovenia and 2-1 to Croatia, but they should be confident of coming out on top in a high-scoring clash.
