Turkey vs Gibraltar Prediction

Turkey are seeking to qualify for the FIFA World Cup for the first time since 2002 and despite being outside the qualification spots, their chances are boosted by their final two matches.

They are due to play Gibraltar and Montenegro, who are among the lowest-ranked sides in European football. Victories in both games would put Turkey in prime position, with the top two facing one another on the final matchday.

We are backing the hosts to triumph with a comfortable victory.
