Faroe Islands have won two, drawn two and lost two of their last six matches. Having gained promotion from the fourth tier, Faroe Islands initially found it difficult to get going amongst the big guns with two consecutive losses in their opening two games. One of these was in the reverse fixture against Turkey which they lost 4-0. However, since then the nation has found their feet in the competition going on a three match unbeaten run. Now with their survival ensured, Faroe Islands can play with confidence and belief to close out the group.
Turkey will be content with their form in recent matches. In their last six fixtures, they have managed four wins to go with one draw and one defeat. Turkey was expected to prevail in group C1 and so they have done in splendid manner. Until the penultimate matchday they were on a 100 percent run with zero goals conceded. A 3-3 draw with Luxembourg on matchday five did shake things up for them but Turkey will be pleased to see their unbeaten run intact and will be determined to keep it that way when they meet Faroe Islands.
Hallur Hansson won’t feature for Faroe Islands due to a long term knee injury. Turkey, on the other hand, will miss the services of Orkun Kokcu and Salih Ozcan, with both players struggling with injury woes.
Faroe Islands possible line-up: Nielsen, Sorensen, Askham, Vatnhamar, Davidsen, Bjartalio, Andreasen, Joensen, M. Olsen, Edmundsson, K. Olsen
Turkey possible line-up: Bayindir, Bulut, Kabak, Soyuncu, Yilmaz, Under, Kahveci, Yuksek, Akturkoglu, Dursun, Akgun
