    Turkey
    • Turkiye recover both Arda Guler and Merih Demiral from bans but have lost Orkun Kokcu to suspension with Ismail Yuksek set to start in midfield.
    • Kaan Ayhan was forced off in the first half of Thursday's 3-1 win over Hungary and is unlikely to recover in time to start, with Mert Mulder expected to feature at right-back.
    • Deniz Gul may lead the line in Hungary on Sunday evening.
  • Prediction

    Hungary have it all to do on Sunday as two quickfire second half goals condemned the Magyars to a 3-1 loss at RAMS Park on Thursday. Marco Rossi's side have now failed to win in three, but have been solid at home having held heavyweights Netherlands and Germany to draws in their UEFA Nations League campaign.

    Turkiye responded to their disappointment at missing out on automatic promotion to League A with a commendable home triumph on Thursday. They'll fancy their chances of finishing the job in the return leg to dump Hungary into League B.

    On home turf, Hungary are not to be underestimated but it's Turkiye who should be the happier of the two sides come full time on Sunday.
