Australia vs Turkey Bet Builder Tips: Correct Score pick features in 39/1 treble

Australia take on Turkey at BC Place on Sunday morning (5am BST, 9pm local, live on ITV) in what is set to be an intriguing clash from Group D.

This is Turkey’s first World Cup appearance since finishing third in 2002, while the Socceroos made the last 16 in Qatar four years ago. Read on for my Australia vs Turkey Bet Builder Tips.

Australia vs Turkey Odds

Correct Score – Turkey 2-1

Despite a 24-year absence from the World Cup, Turkey’s strong performance at Euro 2024 a couple of years back suggests that they could be a potential dark horse in North America.

A 2-1 defeat to the Netherlands in the quarter-finals ended a thrilling run for the Crescent-Stars, and that was built around a young squad, one which is arguably stronger heading into this tournament.

Turkey have won 14 of their last 17 matches, while their opponents here have lost four of their last seven internationals.

Rather than back the Turks outright, which is odds-on, I’m going to go for a correct score prediction of 2-1.

Turkey conceded 12 goals in six World Cup qualifiers, and while eight of those came across two meetings with Spain, they also failed to keep clean sheets away to Bulgaria and Georgia, suggesting that the Aussies could get on the scoresheet on Sunday morning.

Arda Guler to score or assist (Sub Switch)

Arda Guler has developed into one of Europe’s most creative midfielders, and the Real Madrid man will be key to any success his nation enjoy in North America.

Across all competitions this season, Guler registered seven goals and 21 assists in 45 appearances, and he’s averaged more than five crosses per 90 minutes.

On the international stage, the 21-year-old has recorded goal contributions in three of Turkey’s last four outings.

Ismail Yuksek to be carded (Sub Switch)

Rounding off this Bet Builder is Ismail Yuksek to be carded.

Yuksek is a combative defensive midfielder, providing protection to the backline, and allowing Hakan Calhanoglu to work his magic further up the pitch.

The Fenerbahce man was booked in two of his four appearances in the group stage of qualifying and he was also carded in the decisive win over Kosovo in the play-offs.

For Fenerbahce, Yuksek was cautioned eight times in 32 games, as well as picking up a yellow card in four of his eight starts in Europe.
