Turkey, on the other hand, beat Latvia 4-0 in their most recent game. A brace from Besiktas striker Cenk Tosun and goals from Leicester City winger Yunus Akgun and Galatasaray attacker Kerem Akturkoglu sealed the deal for Turkey.

Germany vs Turkey Prediction
Germany have some problems ahead of the Euros next year, with the host nation not enjoying the best of times. They recently sacked Hansi Flick and replaced him with Julian Nagelsmann, and the worry is that the former Bayern Munich boss does not have enough time before the tournament.
They have good players in certain positions, with Bayern Munich stars like Joshua Kimmich, Leroy Sane and Serge Gnabry included in the squad. Barcelona midfielder Ilkay Gundogan and Real Madrid center-back Antonio Rudiger have also been included.
However, the options at positions like full-back are limited, and even their better-known players have not been at their very best.
Turkey, on the other hand, have named the likes of Al-Ahli center-back Merih Demiral and Borussia Dortmund midfielder Salih Ozcan in their squad. Galatasaray winger Kerem Akturkoglu is a player to keep an eye on, though. The 25-year-old is catching the attention of top clubs after some good performances for the Turkish giants.
Germany should have enough to win here.
Prediction: Germany 2-0 Turkey
