Russia will go to the 2018 World Cup as one of t5he weakest teams in the competition, going by their recent performances but facing Turkey in a build up game on Tuesday 5th June should be enough to lift their spirits, since they have never lost to, neither have they ever conceded a goal against Turkey. Russia have been poor in defence lately, and they head to this game winless in the last six matches and having conceded three goals in three of their last five matches, and keeping just once clean sheets in the last 10 games. They have three wins in their last 12 home matches, and in the previous five at home, Russia have lost three and drawn two, conceded 11 goals while scoring just five. Turkey will not be going to the World Cup but this is definitely a chance for them to pick up the preparations for future assignments. The two nations have met thrice, all friendlies, and Turkey have never beaten Russia but they head to this clash as favorites. In the last five away matches Turkey have drawn three and lost two, in the process, conceding 10 but scoring six goals. With just two wins in 11 away, Turkey will be hoping to start a stable run and the fact that they have scored in six of their last 10 away matches may give them hopes. Turkey have not kept a clean sheet in the last eight and have lost four of their last 10 matches.
