Turkey preview: A clean bill of health
It is expected that coach Vincenzo Montella will retain the exact players that started in the 6-1 win over Bulgaria on Saturday, as that game ended without any injury for the Turkish side.
Captain Hakan Calhanoglu was particularly impressive in that contest, with the Inter Milan midfielder providing two assists, while rising youngsters Arda Guler and Kenan Yildiz caused all sorts of problems in the attacking third, scoring and bagging assists themselves.
Looking to fully cement their second spot in the group, the hosts will leave no stone unturned in this meeting, as the Georgians themselves eye a place in the playoffs.
Predicted lineup: Cakir (GK), Celik, Demiral, Bardakci, Kadioglu, Calhanoglu, Kokcu, Aydin, Guler, Yildiz & Akturkoglu.
Last five matches
- Bulgaria 1-6 Turkey
- Turkey 0-6 Spain
- Georgia 2-3 Turkey
- Mexico 1-0 Turkey
- USA 1-2 Turkey
Georgia preview: Eyeing their first away win
Georgia finished their clash against Spain on Saturday without injury problems; this means there will likely not be any surprises when it comes to the starting XI, with PSG’s winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Villarreal's Georges Mikautadze set to feature in the final third once again.
After two losses in Group E, the Crusaders’ dream of appearing in their first-ever World Cup now looks difficult to achieve, but a second-place finish could be achievable should Turkey get their foot off the gas.
Predicted lineup: Mamardashvili (GK), Kakabadze, Kashia, Goglichidze, Dvali, Gocholeishvili, Kochorashvili, Mekvabishvili, Kiteishvili, Mikautadze & Kvaratskhelia.
Last five matches
- Spain 2-0 Georgia
- Georgia 3-0 Bulgaria
- Georgia 2-3 Turkey
- Georgia 1-1 Capo Verde
- Georgia 1-0 Faroe Islands
Player to watch: Arda Guler
Arda Guler put in a man-of-the-match performance last weekend, scoring once and providing two assists in Turkey's 6-1 victory over Bulgaria. At 20, the Real Madrid midfielder already has a solid track record against Georgia, with at least one goal contribution in the last two encounters between these nations.
With seven direct goal involvements in his last five appearances for club and country, it will be interesting to see how Guler fares on Tuesday night.
