Turkey v Belgium : UEFA Nations League match betting preview, prediction and odds

Thu 12th Nov, 17:00 BST, Göztepe Gürsel Aksel Stadı (İzmir), İzmir

Mark van Bommel pays counterpart Ali Rıza Sergen Yalçın a visit on Thursday evening in the UEFA Nations League, as their Belgium and Turkey charges go head to head at the Göztepe Gürsel Aksel Stadı (İzmir). The predictions shown are based on extensive statistical analysis of each side, across 17 of the main betting markets. Data shown and the odds is designed to fit each market, and head to head (H2H) stats are included across the board.


Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals

KickOff's prediction and odds from the bookmakers suggest that this UEFA Nations League clash is going to be entertaining, with at least 3 goals to scored in the match. As both sides are unconvincing in the WDW market given their recent form, we're going with the statistics and past head-to-head (H2H) records below, both of which point firmly in the direction of a tip of over 2.5 goals.

Goal Statistics

Belgium's defensive record is very strong, M. van Bommel's men having conceded 1 or less in 5 consecutive UEFA Nations League games. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.4 for Turkey makes sense in this context.

Belgium's fans will be hoping for goals on Thursday evening, not least because Turkey have conceded in each of their last 8 UEFA Nations League outings. A PG of 1.9 for M. van Bommel's side suggests that run should continue.
