Get all the details for the EURO 2024 match between Turkey (TUR) and Georgia (GEO), including match preview, head-to-head stats, probable XI, Dream11 Predictions and live streaming details.

Turkey are set to make their sixth appearance in the European Championship this year. They will go head-to-head against debutant Georgia in the EURO opener, which is slated to be hosted at the Signal Iduna Park in Dortmund on June 18. Several first-team stars of Turkey picked up injuries in the days leading up to the continental showpiece.

As many as three defenders– Caglar Soyuncu, Ozan Kabak and Ridvan Yilmaz– have been ruled out of the tournament. In this scenario, Turkey will need to keep faith in ex-Juventus man Merih Demiral, who may play alongside Ferdi Kadioglu and Ajax youngster Ahmetcan Kaplan in the backline.

Turkey will also miss the services of Enes Unal, Cengiz Under and Umut Nayir in the attacking third as the trio are also recovering from injuries. Ahead of the EURO, Turkey squared off against reigning champions Italy in a friendly game which ended in a goalless draw. They played another warm-up game against Poland and endured a 2-1 defeat.

Meanwhile, Georgia earned qualification to feature in the 2024 EURO by beating Greece 4-2 via a penalty shootout in the qualifying playoffs. In their last appearance, Georgia notched a commanding 3-1 win over Montenegro.
