Live Match Preview: Czech Republic vs Turkey
Czech Republic and Turkey know the stakes are high tonight as they face off in their bids to qualify for the Euro 2024 knockouts.
Only a win will guarantee a spot in the last-16 for the Czechs after Georgia held them to a 1-1 draw last time out.
Turkey were well beaten by Portugal to leave them at risk and another defeat in Hamburg would likely see them miss out on one of the four third-placed spots in the next round.
But they have a good recent record against Czech Republic and a fascinating finish to this group awaits.
