England starting their preparation for EURO 2016 with the match against Turkish national football team. This is will be the first of their three friendly matches that they will played until the European Championship start. After this game England will face Australia at 27th May, while the last match will take place at Wembley against Portugal. England played two friendly matches this year. First, they beat World Champions, Germany, 2-3, while at home they lost against Netherlands 1-2. Due to absences of Rashford, Rooney and Sturridge, in the attack should be Kane and Vardy. Both played amazing this season in Premier League and without any doubt they will be the most dangerous players for Turkish defence.

Turkey qualified at EURO 2016 as the best 3rd national team in all groups. They have improved their performance and without any doubt they have very quality group of players. They are unbeaten in the last 13 matches in all competitions, including friendlies, so home national team will not have an easy job to beat them. The match between England vs Turkey will be their 11th match. In the previous 10 games between these two national teams in all competitions, England beat them 8 times, while two matches were finished without goals. Interesting fact is that Turkey have never scored a single goal against England and they will be fully motivated to hit the net.

England vs Turkey team news

In home side, Danny Welbeck and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are both injured, while Wayne Rooney, Chris Smalling and Marcus Rashford are all out of the contention due to FA Cup final match between Manchester United and Crystal Palace. Nathaniel Clyne, Adam Lallana, James Milner and Daniel Sturridge will be all rested due to Europa League final between Liverpool and Sevilla. On the other side, visitors will be without Arda Turan, Nuri Sahin and Burak Yilmaz who will all play for their clubs in the Cup matches.

England: Forster; Walker, Stones, Cahill, Rose; Dier, Wilshere, Alli, Barkley; Kane, Vardy.
Turkey: Babacan; Gonul, Calik, Topal, Erkin; Tufan, Inan, Ozyakup; Calhanoglu, Tosun, Malli.

England vs Turkey Prediction

Home side are favorites to win this match and they will be fully motivated to begin with victory in the first preparation match for the EURO 2016. Both teams will be without some important players. I expect interesting game between England vs Turkey and two or three goals.
