Turkey has got 6 points during Euro 2024 qualifiers in June.
Turkish National Team had pretty successful June Euro 2024 qualifiers with getting an important 6 points against Latvia and Wales, and hence has got an important advantage over Wales for 2nd spot as it being its main opponent.
Despite of Stefan Kuntz recieving lots of criticism from Turkish media and some of the supporters, it needs to be mentioned that he did only lose 1 game during this campaign of 4 games and this has been against group favourites Croatia with good performance. It is true that performance against Latvia hasnt been in very good performance level but taking account that Latvia has been providing issues to Turkey historically so sadly for this game to be problematic could be seen as normal outcome. It did provide good performance against Wales with providing pressure even when game has been 11-on-11 and hence this two games does show that pressure provided towards Kuntz could be given bit too much.
Turkey hence did get good advantage during Euro 2024 qualifying games during July and would need to provide similar performance in upcoming games.
Galatasaray will meet rather Zalgiris or Struga at Champions League 2nd qualifying.
Galatasaray has been drawn with winner of 1st qualifying round tie Lithuanian Zalgiris Vilnius and Macedonian Struga at Champions League 2nd qualifying round as Turkish giant is expected not to have strong difficulty with both sides.
Due of dropping at UEFA coefficients in recent years due of poor performance at European competitions has led route to actual tournaments much longer as Galatasaray during this season would need be going through 3 qualifying rounds, which could be even 4 if none qualifier didnt win Champions League tournament. Even through as been noted Galatasaray should not have much issues with both opponents, when coming to selections Galatasaray would be hoping to meet with Struga as it been much weaker while Zalgiris even through only at Champions League does have some experience in the tournament.
As been noted, Galatasaray did get passable opponent in this stage and Galatasaray should not have much issues during tie.
Turkish clubs has found its opponents for Conference League.
Besiktas and Fenerbahce as would been expected did get passable opponents during Conference League while Adana Demirspor due of low coefficient as it is would first time side would compete at European competitions.
Fenerbahce would be meeting with San Marino side La Fiorita or Zimbru while Besiktas would be playing with winner of Tirana and Dinamo Batumi and to some extend Besiktas potential opponentcould be slightly more difficult but still both sides should not have much issues at the field. While, Adana Demirspor will be drawn against Romanian side Club which does have some good experience in European competitions and would be potential providing some issues.
All 3 sides would be aiming to get through into next round and Besiktas with Fenerbahce should not have much issues while Adana Demirspor needs to give some effort.
