Turkey and Belgium both have ways to reach dangerous receiving positions. Turkey's possession has produced genuine chances alongside too many distant attempts, while Belgium have threatened through wide combinations and second balls. The new Turkish attacking shape gives this meeting a different balance from the earlier scoreline.
Enes Ünal has been named to start, giving Arda Güler a central target with runners around him. Arda and Barış return after missing the last international, while Belgium restore De Bruyne and Tielemans to their supply. Lukaku and Openda are absent, but the Lukebakio–De Bruyne connection already hurt Turkey before Lukaku scored in the earlier meeting.
Turkey should seek territory and keep pursuing a win as the match develops. Their changed defensive partnership has had little tactical preparation, and Belgium's previous clean sheet still involved saves and close-range Turkish opportunities. That's why I'm siding with goals in Turkey against Belgium.
Italy's route against France begins with compact defending and a quick release down the right. Kayode, Sebastiano Esposito and Frattesi already combined to reach the box in the earlier draw, and all remain in the projected side. Barella is expected alongside Tonali from the start, adding another midfield connection.
Kean's absence changes the final receiver, with Pio Esposito projected centrally. France retain Olise and Cherki's creative combinations but must reorganise their forward roles without Dembele and Lepaul; Tchouameni has also withdrawn. I expect French territory to alternate with Italian attacks through that established right-side route, with midfield runs becoming more important after the interval. That's why I'm siding with Italy to avoid defeat.
