Turkey v Czech Republic - Geneva

We could be in for some high drama in Geneva on Sunday as a draw in this match would trigger a shootout to decide which team progresses to the quarter-finals alongside Portugal.

Neither side will relish that prospect so both will be looking for the win which will send them through.

On the evidence so far, it's hard to pick a winner so there doesn't seem a strong reason why the Czechs are the clear favourites - 5/4 in places while Turkey are 5/2.

Without doubt, the Czech Republic were lucky to nick victory over Switzerland in the opening game and they were eventually overpowered by Portugal after a bright start.

Turkey left it very late against Switzerland after trailing at the break but that confirmed a feeling that Fatih Terim's men never give up and have a collective will to fight to the death.

They look more of a team than the Czechs and that might show itself later in the game when qualification is on the line.

How best to cash in?

A decent option is taking Turkey to win the game in the second half so have a little on the Draw/Turkey HT/FT result - a wager that would have produced plenty of profit during their qualifiers when their togetherness led to several second-half winners.

And if you want to pinpoint a likely Turkish hero, look to Nihat Kahveci.

He came up with the deciding strikes in their final two must-win fixtures in qualification and banged in 18 goals for Villarreal in La Liga this season.

Take him at 11/4 to find the net again.

Verdict: Turkey 2 Czech Republic 1
