Turkey vs. USA preview: Team news and how to watch World Cup match
FIFA+: World Cup archive & programmes FREE on DAZN
The co-hosts finish their 2026 FIFA World Cup group stage, looking to make it a clean sweep of wins when they take on already eliminated Turkey.
The US are already through to the knockout stage, having made history as the first USMNT to win back-to-back World Cup games, and will now look to keep the momentum going as they head to the Round of 32.
Following a thumping 4-1 win over Paraguay, Maurico Pochettino's men then saw off Australia and a third final victory will see them top the group and most likely book a date with Bosnia-Herzegovina in the next phase.
To do that, they'll have to overcome a Turkey side who have largely disappointed so far Stateside. Despite reaching the finals through the play-offs, the young Turkish side had been seen as dark horses by some, but after losing both their opening games, they were already planning their summer holidays after Thursday.
