Turkey aim to make amends for an unsuccessful World Cup campaign when they take on France in the Nations League round 1. The Turks have won seven of their last 10 matches, including five of their last six on home soil. However, key players Kenan Yildiz and Hakan Calhanoglu are both sidelined with injuries, leaving Turkey without two important attacking and creative options. Vicenzo Montella's men have still averaged 2.33 goals per home game during their recent sample.
France, on the other hand, reached the World Cup semi-finals and will be hoping to make a strong start under new boss Zinedine Zidane. Kylian Mbappe will lead the line for the visitors, while Liverpool defender Jeremy Jacquet is expected to step up with William Saliba unavailable. Les Tricolores have won both of their last two away matches, scoring five goals and conceding just once, while they have failed to score in only one of their last 10 overall.
France have won both of their recent away matches and boast a 70% overall win rate, although Turkey's 83% home win rate makes this a tricky fixture. Anyhow, we are tempted to bet on Away Win as key players are missing for Turkey. Additionally, Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals markets seem appealing (France average 3.70 total goals per game, while Turkey's home matches produce 3.00 on average).
This Nations League match will be played on Friday 25 September 2026 at 19:45.
