Türkiye face France on 25 September in their first UEFA Nations League A campaign, with the match taking place at Kocaeli Stadium.
There are a few interesting things going into this one. Türkiye will have home support behind them, while France are starting a new chapter with Zinédine Zidane taking charge of the national team for the first time.
Looking at the recent results, both teams have won three of their last five matches, although Türkiye's results included two friendlies. France also come into the game with a stronger recent tournament record.
The head-to-head record is interesting too. France have won four of the six previous meetings, but Türkiye won the last meeting between the sides on Turkish soil in 2019.
I'm curious how everyone sees this one going.
Can Türkiye's home advantage cause problems for France?
Will Zidane's first match in charge make this more unpredictable?
And most importantly — what's your score prediction for Türkiye vs France?
I'm seeing this as a potentially close game rather than an easy one for either side.
