Coach: Fatih Terim Karel Brueckner
Injured: 4-Gokhan Zan (knee)
5-Emre Belozoglu (hamstring)
Suspended: None None
Changes:
* Czech coach Karel Brueckner may well start with Jan Koller
and Milan Baros in attack. That would mean an end to the 4-5-1
formation with midfielder Tomas Galasek missing out.
* Coach Fatih Terim is expected to keep faith with the team
that started the 2-1 win over Switzerland.
Key stats:
* Turkey have never beaten Czech Republic, conceding 13
goals in four matches against Sunday's opponents.
* If the match ends in a draw a penalty shootout will take
place to decide who goes through -- the first time this method
has been used to separate teams at the group stage in a European
championship.
