Will Kerem Aktürkoğlu play? What time is the Turkey vs. Montenegro match? Which channel? Probable starting lineups!

The National Team has performed successfully in the Nations League, securing 3 wins in 5 matches. Both matches played against Wales ended in goalless draws. Montenegro has yet to earn a point in the group and has lost all 5 matches played. Montenegro, managed by Robert Prosinecki, was defeated 2-0 by Iceland in their last match. So, will Montella make a surprise selection in the Montenegro match? Who will be in the starting 11 for the Turkey-Montenegro match? Will Kerem Aktürkoğlu play?

WHAT TIME IS THE TURKEY - MONTENEGRO MATCH?

The National Team will play its final match in the Nations League against Montenegro. The date of the match to be played away in Montenegro is November 19, 2024 (today).

SWISS REFEREE FOR THE MONTENEGRO MATCH

The match will be officiated by referee Urs Schnyder from the Swiss Football Association. Schnyder will be assisted by Marco Zürcher and Benjamin Zürcher from the same country. The fourth official of the match will be Sven Wolfensberger.

ABSENCES CONFIRMED

Kenan Yıldız, whose suspension has ended, will be eligible to play in this match. Abdülkerim Bardakcı, who is suspended, will not be able to take his place in the team for this match. Hakan Çalhanoğlu, who is injured, will also be unable to play against Montenegro.

WILL KEREM AKTÜRKOĞLU BE IN THE SQUAD?

Following the Wales match played in Kayseri, Aktürkoğlu became the focus of criticism. While many criticized Aktürkoğlu due to the penalty he missed, many others, led by national team captain Hakan Çalhanoğlu, stood by Aktürkoğlu.

It is expected that national team head coach Vincenzo Montella will play Benfica's Aktürkoğlu, who has no suspension or injury, in the Montenegro match.

THE GOAL IS LEADERSHIP FOR THE NATIONAL TEAM

If the National Team returns from the Montenegro away match with a win, they will finish the group as leaders.

If Turkey finishes the group as leaders, they will secure their place in League A. If the national team leaves the field with a draw, the result of the Wales-Iceland match will directly affect the points standings.

The points standings before the match are as follows;

1. Turkey 11 points

2. Wales 9 points

3. Iceland 7 points

4. Montenegro 0 points

EYES ON FAIR PLAY POINTS

If the national team draws goalless with Montenegro and Wales beats Iceland 3-0, the goal difference, head-to-head record, and goals scored and conceded will be equal.

In this case, the fair play points (cards received) of the two teams will determine the leader.
