Turkey vs Spain Team News
Turkey Team News
Turkey are one of the teams that usually play well in qualifiers but struggle to replicate those performances in major tournaments. More often than not, this comes down to poor management on the emotional side of the game.
The squad started their World Qualifiers campaign with a tense 3-2 victory over Georgia, where Barış Alper Yılmaz received a red card only five minutes after entering the pitch in the second half.
The Turks opened the scoring in the third minute through Mert Müldür, before Kerem Aktürkoğlu added a brace.
In their international friendlies, they ceded possession and chances to the U.S. but proved more efficient thanks to a masterclass from Arda Güler. However, the same can’t be said about the match against Mexico. Despite dominating, the Turks failed to create a single big chance from 17 shots.
Turkey predicted lineup vs Spain (4-2-3-1): Çakır; Kadıoğlu, Demiral, Söyüncü, Çelik; Çalhanoğlu, Kökçü; Aktürkoğlu, Güler, Yılmaz; Yıldız.
Spain Team News
Spain might have been deprived of Gavi, but his absence had little impact in their first qualifier against Bulgaria.
Luis de la Fuente oversaw a calm 3-0 victory, with goals from Mikel Oyarzabal, Mikel Merino, and Marc Cucurella. The Spaniards controlled proceedings with 78% possession and 24 shots, while conceding only three.
That dominance highlighted the influence of Pedri and Huijsen, both heavily involved in the team’s chance-creating process. The former was seen everywhere on the pitch, supporting his teammates going forward, especially as he led the ball to the final third.

Oyarzabal failed to impress up front, but this didn’t have a significant impact, as Spain’s midfield trio did most of the job. The victory was important for De La Fuente’s squad, who could potentially rotate in upcoming matches.
Spain predicted lineup vs Turkey (3-4-3): Simón; Cucurella, Huijsen, Le Normand, Carvajal; Zubimendi, Merino, Pedri; Williams, Morata, Yamal.

Turkey vs Spain Prediction, Odds
- Prediction: Spain to win
- Odds: -173 (Tonybet)
- Correct score prediction: Turkey 1:3 Spain
Turkey are renowned for their unique atmosphere, with arguably one of the most passionate fan bases. While it may scare away some players, it’s likely to be insufficient against a team like Spain. Luis de La Fuente, who guided his side to the EURO 2024 title, can count on a majority of his key starters.
La Roja will inevitably be favoured for the match by betting odds as one of the strongest squads at the international level. The Turks tend to play a defensive block, but conceding possession might be dangerous, as the Spaniards rarely fail to punish mistakes and turn them into goals.
Turkey vs Spain Betting Tip
- Pick: Pedri to score
- Odds: +459 (Tonybet)
Despite being one of the best teams in world soccer at the moment, Spain have yet to find a quality striker, as Luis de La Fuente is still looking for a Morata replacement. In the meantime, Oyarzabal hasn’t looked particularly impressive.
The solution, for now, is to involve midfielders more in the final third. Among them would be Pedri, whose advanced role in possession with Spain will be useful against Turkey’s low block. If Pedri can take advantage of the opponents’ flat, passive defensive structure, chances are that he’ll find himself on the scoresheet.
