Craig Bellamy has made an impressive start to his reign as Wales boss but faces his biggest test yet with a trip to Turkey in the Nations League.
The former Liverpool, Newcastle and Manchester City striker kicked off his management career with a home game against the Turks and presided over a promising performance as the Welsh emerged with a creditable 0-0 draw.
They have since claimed home and away victories over Montenegro either side of a draw in Iceland, making Bellamy the first Welsh manager to go unbeaten across his first four games.
That record faces a stern test tonight though as he takes the Dragons into an Kayseri cauldron to face the the Group B4 leaders.

Turkey vs Wales top betting tips
Since that Cardiff draw, Turkey have won three in a row and they impressed last time out by claiming a 4-2 win in Iceland. So it's no great surprise to see them as Betano's 4/6 favourites here with home advantage. Adding on over 1.5 goals boosts the odds to 28/25 in a bet builder and that looks decent value.
It's not in Bellamy's style to park bus and even though the last meeting ended in a 0-0 draw, there were still plenty of chances at both ends. That suggests over 2.5 goals stands a good chance at 20/21 with Betano while adding on BTTS boosts the odds to 7/5 at Bet365.
Harry Wilson has been in scoring form for club and country this term so the Fulham midfielder could be worth a punt at 11/10 with Bet365 just to have an effort on target.
Germany vs Bosnia and Herzegovina top betting tips
Group A3 has produced some crackers in the Nations League so far and Germany will be out to secure top spot by beating whipping boys Bosnia and Herzegovina in Freiburg.
Germany's only dropped points so far came in a 2-2 thriller with the Dutch and they claimed a 2-1 win away to the Bosnians thanks to a Denis Undav double.
The Stuttgart man is missing tonight and Julian Nagelsmann has a few others out injured but the Germans still have plenty of quality in reserve.
With the home win just 1/11 at Betano, it's hard to find value but Bosnia are missing a few defenders due to injuries and bans so a goal inside 15 minutes could stand a chance at 6/4 with Betano.
Jamal Musiala could be too hot to handle for the Bosnians and the Bayern Munich playmaker is 6/5 at Bet365 for a goal.
Netherlands vs Hungary top betting tips
The other game in Group A3 sees the Dutch host Hungary and it's a match that looks set to decide who joins Germany in reaching the quarter-finals.
Both teams sit on five points and the Netherlands needed a late Denzel Dumfries strike to salvage a 1-1 draw when they faced off in Budapest.
Ronald Koeman's side are 1/3 hot favourites with Betano but it's far from gimme as they're missing several key men through injury.
Cody Gakpo is available though and the Liverpool winger has been flying for club and country this term. He's 5/4 with Bet365 for anytime scorer and the odds increase to 6/1 if you back him to score from outside the box.
