As for Turkey, this is the 5th friendly match of the year, after previous friendly matches against Tunisia, Iran, Montenegro and Republic of Ireland. The only recent head‑to‑head between these two teams was played on 31‑08‑2016, and ended in a draw by (0‑0). Both teams register significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth atention.

Analysis Russia

The home team plays its 4th friendly match of the year. In the previous friendly matches they registered the following final scores: Austria (1‑0) Russia, Russia (1‑3) France and Russia (0‑3) Brazil. This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses in away matches, with 25 goals scored and 16 conceded; against 5 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses at their stadium, with 23 goals scored and 24 conceded. In the last 10 home matches Russia has won 3, tied 3 and lost 4. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 9 of the last 10 matches. They have conceded the first goal in 9 of their 15 matches, and have never been able to turn the score around.

The Russian national team comes for this match after a defeat against Austria, by 1-0, adding in this way the sixth followed match without winning in preparation matches. Despite being the great organizer of the 2018 World Cup, Russia hasn’t managed to give positive hopes to their fans. Looking at the last 10 matches, it’s possible to note that the Russians scored on average 1.3 goals and conceded an average of 1.7 goals per match, that is, they display several failures in the defensive sector. At the individual level, we highlight the forward Fedor Smolov, a player from Krasnodar, a very powerful player and expert in finishing. For this match, the coach Stanislav Cherchesov should play with the usual eleven.

Confirmed Lineup: Igor Akinfeev, Ilya Kutepov, Igor Smolnikov, Aleksandr Samedov, Yury Zhirkov, Aleksandr Golovin, Alan Dzagoev, Yuri Gazinskiy, Roman Zobnin, Fedor Smolov.
Coach: S. Ignashevich, V. Karpin.

Analysis Turkey

The away team plays its 5th friendly match of the year. In the previous friendly matches they registered the following final scores: Tunisia (2‑2) Turkey, Turkey (2‑1) Iran, Montenegro (2‑2) Turkey and Turkey (1‑0) Republic of Ireland. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses in away matches, with 19 goals scored and 21 conceded; against 9 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 19 goals scored and 12 conceded. In the last 10 away matches Turkey has won 2, tied 5 and lost 3. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 3 of the last 4 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 4 matches for this competition. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 4 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 12 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 8 of their 17 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

Turkey comes for this match after a 2-2 draw against Tunisia, adding to this the fourth followed match without losing in preparation matches: the goals were pointed by Tosun and Soyuncu. We can see that the Turks are one of the great absentees of the 2018 World Cup. Analyzing the previous 10 matches, it’s possible to notice that the Turks expose a very interesting offensive sector, fast and finisher; however, the defensive sector is the weakest point of this team: they conceded on average 1.7 goals per match. The player who stands out in this Turkey is the under winger: this player is unpredictable and strong in the offensive transition. Without major absences, the visiting team must play at full strength.

Confirmed Lineup: Serkan Kırıntılı, Şener Özbayraklı, Hasan Ali Kaldırım, Kaan Ayhan, Çağlar Söyüncü, Okay Yokuşlu, İrfan Can Kahveci, Mahmut Tekdemir, Yusuf Yazıcı, Cengiz Ünder, Kenan Karaman.
Coach: S. Kuntz.
