🚨XIs ready: Italy seek a revival against Turkey | OneFootball

Bursa’s Timsah Arena stages a heavyweight clash in UEFA Nations League Group 1, as Türkiye host Italy. The home side arrive with defensive concerns after conceding the opening goal in each of their last five matches, compounded by the significant injury absences of Hakan Çalhanoğlu and Kenan Yıldız. All local hopes rest on Arda Güler’s talent to break down the opposing back line.

For their part, the Azzurra will rely on their historic solidity (unbeaten in the last four head-to-head meetings) and on the precise ball circulation orchestrated by Nicolò Barella. Despite the absences of Dimarco and Cristante, Italy will look to control possession against the push of 43,000 fans, in a match where efficiency in both boxes will decide the winner.
