Turkey proved they have the heart for a fight when coming back from a goal down at half time to beat the Swiss and the win has given them great heart to overcome the Czech’s. However if they are to win then they must place more emphasis on defence. The Swiss had several opportunities to score but only managed to take one. The Czech’s will be far more astute in front of goal and although conceding three goals themselves to Portugal, their defence is a lot sturdier than that of the Swiss.

It is one of those games that could become a negative affair with both sides fearful of conceding. However should one side score ‘early doors’ then it could be a completely different story. Prior to the start of the Tournament, the Czech’s were odds on to qualify from the Group, along with Portugal, however now that they are in a ‘do or die’ situation, questions marks are being raised about their character to win through and are ripe for the Turks to take on.
