Türkiye vs Wales match preview
With Croatia widely-expected to top Group D, these two are set to be fighting it out for second, making this clash in Samsun potentially decisive.
This was always going to be a crucial two-game window for Wales, but it started in catastrophic fashion on Friday night.
The Dragons were demolished 4-2 by Armenia in Cardiff, despite taking the lead through Dan James before, when Harry Wilson got it back to 3-2, the Armenians want straight up the other end and scored again.
Kieffer Moore’s late red card compounding a miserable night for Rob Page’s team.
Before this, everything was going to plan for the Dragons, who’d pinched a point in Split against Croatia, Nathan Broadhead equalising in stoppage time, and then managed to defeat Latvia 1-0 at home.
Four years ago, in the most-recent European Championships qualifying cycle, then Ryan Giggs’ Wales lost both matches in the June window, but managed to turn it round and qualify in the end.
Having seen how shambolic Wales were at the back on Friday night, Türkiye will fancy their chances of a crucial home win as they seek to pull clear at the top of the table.
The Crescent Stars, just about, beat Latvia in Rīga on matchday three, but did so in dramatic circumstances.
Abdülkerim Bardakcı and Cengiz Ünder were both on target at Skonto stadions, only for Latvia to make it 2-2 in the 94th minute.
Seemingly unperturbed by this, Türkiye found time to win it through İrfan Can Kahveci, doing so mere seconds from the restart.
Stefan Kuntz’s team now have six points to their name, having won in Armenia on opening night before a 2-0 reverse at the hands of Croatia in Bursa.
Türkiye are guaranteed a play-off place, as are Wales, having won promotion back to League B last year, but a win here would massively improve their chances of automatic qualification.
This is a massive night for both, so will there be a winner at Samsun 19 Mayıs Stadium?
Türkiye team news
Umut Nayir got the nod up front in Rīga, with Kenan Karaman not 100% fit.
İrfan Can Kahveci’s 95th minute off the bench may be enough to earn him a start, while captain Hakan Çalhanoğlu will win his 78th cap, looking to break into the top ten soon.
Wales team news
Kieffer Moore’s late red card against Armenia means he is suspended, which is a big blow.
Rob Page could bring in Nathan Broadhead as a like-for-like deputy or, and this is more likely, go with a fluid front three of Harry Wilson, Dan James and Brennan Johnson.
Danny Ward is likely to keep his place in goal, chosen over Wayne Hennessey.
