Turkey vs Georgia Euro Prediction

Turkey were very impressive in the Euro 2024 Qualifying campaign. They finished top of Group D in qualifying, finishing ahead of a strong Croatian side with a lot of major championship pedigree by one point. They only tasted defeat on one occasion in qualifying at the hands of Croatia, in their home stadium, The Ataturk Olympic Stadium 0-2. They avenged this defeat with a win in Croatia later in the campaign, 0-1. They scored 14 goals in qualifying, conceding only 7. Turkey have had mixed fortunes in friendlies since qualifying, winning 2-3 away at tournament hosts Germany in November, but losing 6-1 to Austria in March. They have quality players at their disposal, particularly in the form of Fenerbahce winger Cengiz Under, Galtasaray’s Muhammad Akturkoglu and Inter Milan midfielder Hakan Calhanoglu. Under has 9 goals and 2 assists this season for Fenerbahce in the Turkish Super Lig and Akturkoglu had 12 league goals while Calhanoglu was voted Serie A midfielder of the season after contributing 13 goals and 8 assists to Inter Milan’s Serie A title success.

Georgia are competing in the European Championships for the first time after making it through the playoffs with a penalty shootout victory versus 2004 Euro’s winners Greece. The game ended 0-0 after normal and extra time before Nika Kvekveskiri fired the winning penalty, ending the shootout at 4-2 and sending Georgia to Euro 2024. Georgia missed out on Euro 2020 after a playoff defeat to North Macedonia, so finally getting past this stage sparked wild celebrations after the shootout. Georgia are a team with quality also and this is seen in star man Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. Kvaratskhelia plays his club football for Serie A side Napoli and has been linked with a move away to the Premier League. Kvaratskhelia contributed 11 goals and 6 assists in the Serie A this season as Napoli’s defence of the title was a major disappointment finishing 10th. He has shown his worth to Georgia scoring 15 goals in 29 appearances for his country. The quality on both sides makes this a compelling match but I am tipping Turkey as they should be more confident after an impressive qualification campaign.
