---------------------------
Spain look to continue their winning start to the 2026 World Cup qualifiers as they face Turkey, who also won their opening match, setting up an exciting Group E clash.
Team Analysis:
Turkey secured a narrow 3-2 win over Georgia after a late comeback, aiming to build on their Euro 2024 quarter-final success despite not reaching a World Cup since 2002. They face a tough challenge against Spain, who have dominated recent meetings and started their qualifiers with a convincing 3-0 win over Bulgaria. Spain, fresh off their Euro 2024 title, aim to improve on recent World Cup performances and are favorites to top Group E, while Turkey looks likely to compete for second place and a playoff spot.
Player Situation:
Turkey are expected to field the same lineup against Spain following their win over Georgia, with Kerem Akturkoglu leading the attack and key players like Arda Guler and Hakan Calhanoglu in midfield. Spain could see the return of Lamine Yamal despite a recent injury scare, while most of their starting lineup from the Bulgaria match is likely to remain unchanged.
Result Prediction:
The match is expected to be closely contested, with Turkey likely to score, but Spain's superior quality should secure them a vital win in Group E.
Predicted Result: Turkey 1-2 Spain.
