Prediction: Türkiye wins
Türkiye have a good performance at home games in UEFA Nations League. They managed to remain unbeaten in their last 6 home games. They won 4 of these 6 games. They can continue tehir good performance against Hungary on Thursday evening. Hungary have lost 4 of their 6 away games, Especially they have really bad performance in Nations League.
Türkiye özellikle hücumda skoru değiştirebilecek, kolay pozisyona girebilen oyunculara sahip bir takım. Macaristan savunmasını zor anlar bekleyecektir.
If Türkiye play up to their level, they should win this one, and Hungary's less than free scoring nature away from home, the win to nil price looks appealing.
