Turkey Will Look for a Way to Stay in the League Against France

Turkey's national football team will face France away in the sixth and final match of UEFA Nations League A Group 1. The match kicks off at 22.45 and will be broadcast live on ATV.

Turkey has yet to pick up a point in the group and has a goal average of minus 10. To stay in League A, the Turkish side must first finish in the top two among the last-placed teams of the four groups. The top two teams in that ranking will then play off against the group runners-up from League B. Teams that reach the play-off must get through a two-legged relegation round to remain in League A.

Turkey's first goal is to leave France with a win. That result would allow it to finish the group stage with 3 points.

The situation is different in the other groups. Serbia has failed to take a point in Group 2, with a goal average of minus 7, and will play Greece in its final match. Czechia has yet to earn a point in Group 3, with a goal average of minus 10, and will face Croatia in its last game. Norway is last in Group 4 and has 3 points.

If Turkey reaches the play-off, it will be paired with one of the League B group runners-up. Possible opponents include Hungary, which was previously defeated in the Nations League play-off, as well as Kosovo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Slovenia, which were beaten in the World Cup European qualifying play-off.
