Luxembourg

Die Roten Lowen appointed 24 players for the June game in the Nations League. Edvin Muratovic picked up an injury in training last week and missed the game against the Faroe Islands. His involvement in the game is still in doubt.

Wounded: There isn’t any

Depends: There isn’t any

Doubtful: Edvin Muratovi

Turkey

Turkey will travel to Luxembourg in clean health and will have no worries of the current suspension for the match. They are in good form and we don’t expect much change in the starting XI even though Stefan Kuntz has plenty of options in his 26-man squad.
