"Knowing that they can take a giant leap towards wrapping up a top-two finish in Group E, Turkey will welcome Georgia to Kocaeli on Tuesday night. Making an immediate return to winning ways over the weekend as they produced a sensational performance on foreign soil, the Crescent Stars will certainly be smelling the chance to lay down another World Cup qualifying marker here. While Georgia might have opened their respective Group E adventure last month with their sights set on mounting a genuine silver medal finish, Tuesday's guests have continued to show some real inconsistencies."
"While Turkey might have come under serious scrutiny last month as they signed off September's international break with a 6-0 drumming at the hands of reigning European champions Spain, Tuesday's hosts came roaring back in some style last time out. Marking their return to World Cup qualifying duties with a sensational 6-1 romp away at Bulgaria, the Crescent Stars will be dreaming of a repeat performance here. Getting their Group E campaign underway with a dramatic 3-2 victory against Georgia on September 4th, Vincenzo Montella's side have largely impressed with their free-scoring performances in the final third."
