Turkey preview: Montella could ring the changes
Turkey didn't really get going in their loss to Hungary and head coach Vincenzo Montella could make changes to his XI in a bid to crank intensity levels up. Yusuf Yazici, Kerem Akturkoglu and wonderkid Arda Guler could come into contention.
Predicted lineup: Gunok – Celik, Akaydin, Kabak, Yilmaz – Yusek, Calhanoglu, Akgun, Kokcu, Yildiz – Unal

Player to watch – Christoph Baumgartner
Talented RB Leipzig midfielder Christoph Baumgartner stole the show in Austria’s win over Slovakia at the weekend when he scored a superb solo goal and the 24-year-old has now notched in each of his last two appearances for his country.
Baumgartner has star quality
Baumgartner has been enjoying a solid maiden campaign with RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga since his move to Die Roten Bullen from Hoffenheim last summer and he carried his confident domestic form onto the international scene this week. Baumgartner has the skill to make another telling impact against Turkey.
