Turkey are currently one point behind Belgium in Euro 2012 qualifying Group A but, with the Belgians facing a near impossible clash with Germany, they are in a very strong position to reach the playoffs.

Guus Hiddink's side face Azerbaijan on Tuesday and it is 1/9, at bet365, that they do their bit by beating the minnows. That should be a given, although the fact that Azerbaijan won in Baku when the sides' met last year is something that will worry the home supporters.

However, that result should simply have served as a warning for Turkey and they will, as a consequence, be fully focused on winning in Istanbul. It is 3/8 that they win by at least two goals and 19/20 that the margin of victory is three or more.

That seems more than likely as Azerbaijan, who are 18/1 to win on Tuesday or 8/1 to draw with their hosts, were absolutely awful in their 4-1 defeat to Austria on Friday evening. The defence couldn't cope with the pace and movement of Marc Janko in attack and they will really struggle against Atletico Madrid's Arda Turan. He is a 4/1 shot to open the scoring and that could be a good bet.

Recommendation

Match Handicap (-2.5 Goals) - Turkey (19/20, bet365)
