Wales vs Turkey Betting Tips: BTTS / Over 2.5 Goals

Turkey makes the journey to Cardiff in good spirits after an impressive 3:2 friendly win against Germany on Saturday. With their place in Euro 2024 already secure, the Turks showed impressive heart to fight back twice to secure an eye-catching friendly against next summer´s host nation. 

Needing a point to be assured of top spot in Group D, Vincenzo Montella´s side have lost just one of seven qualifiers and will be looking to put a damper on an already deflated home side.

Indeed, with Wales failing to beat Armenia over the weekend, the hosts must now win this match and hope Croatia drop points in their final fixture against Armenia in order to secure automatic qualification. Otherwise, the Welsh look set for a playoff tie in March. 

Tuesday´s visitors scored a comfortable 2:0 when these nations met earlier in this campaign and while the Welsh are usually a different animal at home, the Turks will be confident of getting the point they need to secure their place as group winners.

A tough one to call, I like the chances of both teams scoring on Tuesday. Turkey have only kept three clean sheets in their last 12 away matches while Wales have only failed to score in one of their last 11 home European Championship qualifiers. With the Turks usually seeing high-scoring matches this year, I´m confident of something similar in Cardiff. Montella´s men have seen BTTS and over 2.5 goals in five of their last six road matches.
