It’s crunch time at the European Football Championship. The playoffs are not far away, but some teams still need to qualify for the round of 16. The Group F matches will take place on Wednesday, June 26, at 22:00.
These two teams will be the last to play, so you could say that they already know who they might face in the playoffs. However, only Portugal, which has already secured its place, can think about the playoffs, while the Czech Republic and Turkey seem likely to play for second place in the group.

Turkey started the tournament with a win over Georgia but lost the other match 0:3 against Portugal. The Czech Republic, meanwhile, started the championship with a disappointing defeat against Portugal.
Lukas Provod put the Czechs ahead in the 62nd minute, but in the 69th minute the score was tied, and Francisco Conceicao’s goal in added time gave them the win.
In the second match, the Czechs were unable to convert any chances. They played Georgia 1-1 but took 26 shots, 11 of which were on target.

The situation in this EURO 2024 group is such that Turkey would not finish second if it lost to the Czech Republic. Even if Georgia wins and Turkey draws, both would have 4 points, but Turkey won against Georgia so they will remain in second place.
As a result, you can be sure that the Turks will play much safer football here – it’s not worth risking for them.
In this match, it’s almost up to the Czechs – if they manage to win, they will potentially secure second place – if somehow Georgia beat Portugal and have a better goal ratio, the Czechs would still qualify for the play-offs with 4 points in third place.
Turkey looked weak against Portugal, with two of the most talented players starting on the bench. This was probably due to premature thinking about the decisive game.
However, the match was not without mistakes, which led to goals, one of which was scored in the own goal.
Such a game does not inspire much confidence. The Czechs were unlucky against Georgia; if they will have some freedom against Turkey, they could score more than one or two goals. The +0.0 Asian handicap will give us the money back if the match ends in a draw.
