Turkey can make certain of progression in second spot from Euro 2024 Group F if they avoid defeat against the Czech Republic in Hamburg.

After a thrilling opening win over Georgia, Vincenzo Montella’s side suffered a set-back with a disappointing performance and 3-0 defeat to Portugal.

They remain well placed to reach the knockout rounds, though, with the Czech Republic needing a win to overhaul their opponents.

A series of squandered chances against Georgia cost them victory in their last outing, though Patrik Schick’s second-half equaliser has preserved their hopes of advancing.

Here’s everything you need to know.

Team news

Patrik Schick is a major doubt for the Czech Republic after suffering a calf injury in the draw with Georgia, with manager Ivan Hasek suggesting ahead of the game that the striker is unlikely to feature.

Abdulkerim Bardakci is suspended after picking up a second caution of the tournament against Portugal; Merih Demiral may deputise in central defence. Arda Guler, used off the bench for just 20 minutes due to a groin injury, could be recalled to the starting side, but Mert Gunok’s knee issue is set to again keep the goalkeeper out.

Predicted line-ups

Czech Republic XI: Stanek; Holes, Hranac, Krejci; Coufal, Soucek, Provod, Jurasek; Cerny, Chytil, Hlozek.

Turkey XI: Bayindir; Celik, Akaydin, Demiral, Kadioglu; Calhanoglu, Ayhan; Guler, Kokcu, Yildiz; Yilmaz.
