THE PREDICTION
After missing out on automatic qualification for the World Cup following defeat at home to Serbia in their final World Cup qualification group-stage fixture, Portugal and Cristiano Ronaldo must now re-adjust and prepare themselves for the visit of Turkey, who will have something to prove following their terrible showing at EURO 2020. Although Turkey accrued four more points than Portugal in their respective groups, all that counts for nothing here in this one-off clash and in a match of such magnitude, backing the star quality of Portugal has to be favoured. The likes of Ronaldo, Bruno Fernandes and Bernardo Silva to name just three, provide the hosts with the sort of offensive threat that should wind up simply too strong for Turkey to contain. Therefore, back Portugal in front of their own fans to triumph across 90 minutes and move ever closer to booking their place at the World Cup.
