The best betting odds on a draw at full-time with the bookies are at 67/20.
Turkey enter their upcoming game placed as number 26 in the FIFA world ranking. There is a bit of a gap to opponents Iceland, who enter the game ranked number 71 in the world.
After the opening round of the group matches Turkey are number two on one, while Iceland have three as number one. Missing out on three points in their upcoming UEFA Nations League group match will be next to scandalous for Turkey. Assuming a few more tough matches are coming up, securing a win here on home soil is essential.
Turkey are not a high scoring team these days, as they only found the back of the net nine times in the last ten outings. That is an average of just 0.9 goals per game, as they conceded 13 goals. They managed two clean sheets in these matches.
Coming away from their next UEFA Nations League match with anything but a defeat for Iceland would be a massive surprise. It looks like a question of simply trying to minimize the defeat everyone expects them to suffer.
Iceland travel to their next away match on Monday having performed a tolerable average of 1.6 goals in five matches. They scored a total of eight goals, whilst shipping six goals against. An average of 1.2 goals against a game. They hung on to one clean sheets in this streak.
Turkey vs Iceland Prediction
Turkey Form
In has been a bit of everything for Turkey in their previous three matches, where they first beat Austria by 1-2. This was followed by a disappointing 2-1 defeat against Netherlands, before an encounter with Wales produced a 0-0 draw. Turkey won half of their previous six internationals, while also drawing one. They lost two, while they scored eight and conceded eight goals.
Iceland Form
Two victories are what Iceland have to show from their past three matches, as they first beat England 0-1. This was followed by a 4-0 defeat against Netherlands, before winning again 2-0 against Montenegro. Iceland recorded a very decent outcome of four wins from six internationals, in which they banged in ten goals, whilst conceding seven. They also drew zero and lost two.
Turkey are well up for the task of building on their current momentum, and we expect them to deliver the goods in their upcoming clash at Gursel Aksel Stadium against visitors Iceland.
