The Faroe Islands and Turkey will come face to face in the match of the 6th round of the UEFA Nations League group stage of League C. Will the hosts be able to extend the winless streak?
Faroe Islands
The Faroe Islands started the group stage with two defeats, losing 0-4 to Turkey and 0-1 to Luxembourg, and after that they gave out a 3-match winless streak. First, they achieved the first victory, beating Lithuania at home (2-1), and after that they drew two matches, sharing points with Luxembourg (2-2) and Lithuania (1-1). Before the final round, the Faroe Islands can feel calm, because they will definitely not be relegated from the C League, having broken away from Lithuania by four points.
Turkey
The match of the sixth round is also a formality for Turkey, which scored thirteen points in the previous five matches and guaranteed itself first place, and with it a ticket to League B. But the game of the last round slightly spoiled the impression of the Turks' performance in the current League of Nations draw. In it, Stefan Kunz's wards could not beat Luxembourg on their own field, moreover, they were close to defeat, but still managed to escape, reducing the matter to 3-3. The closest pursuer is Luxembourg, which has five points less.
Statistics and figures:
- The Faroe Islands have scored five points in the previous three matches;
- Turkey has four wins with one draw;
- In the first round, the Faroe Islands lost to Turkey 0-4.
Forecast
The Faroe Islands have not lost for three rounds, but they are unlikely to extend the positive streak, since Turkey will play much better after a misfire in the last match, and will make every effort to rehabilitate itself.
