News from Saint Petersburg in the early kick-off and it’s a goal for Russia just on the stroke of half-time. Atalanta’s Aleksey Miranchuk has grabbed it and Finland will feel hard done by after an earlier goal they scored through Joel Pohjanpalo was ruled out by VAR.

Players and coaches from every competing nation at Euro 2020 have sent their best wishes to Christian Eriksen in a touching video message.

The Danish star is recovering in hospital after suffering a cardiac arrest and collapsing on the pitch during their opening match against Finland in Copenhagen on Saturday night.

Eriksen needed 13 minutes of CPR from the Denmark team doctors before regaining consciousness.

The 29-year-old remains in a stable condition in hospital, posting an Instagram selfie giving the thumbs up from his bed on Tuesday. He declared himself 'fine - under the circumstances.’

The world of football was united in wanting the Inter Milan attacking midfielder to make a full and speedy recovery and the Danish FA has posted a video compilation of good luck messages.

England's Kieran Trippier, Wales's Gareth Bale and Scotland's Andrew Robertson are three of the players who feature as well as Spain coach Luis Enrique and Holland manager Frank de Boer.

The UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin opens the messages and the video finishes with Anthony Taylor, the referee in charge of the Denmark vs Finland match, wishing Eriksen well.

Here’s how the table looks ahead of the second set of fixtures in Group A.

Italy lead the way thanks to that 3-0 win over Turkey, followed by Wales and Switzerland who shared the spoils on Saturday.

Turkey are presently bottom of the table but the situation can still change drastically.

This group of supporters were at the stadium some three hours before kick-off which you might say is dedication.

As mentioned earlier there’s plenty of camaraderie between Turkey and Azerbaijan so we can expect all the locals to be cheering Turkey on inside the stadium.

If you felt a little bit short-changed with only the two matches yesterday, then fear not as we’re back to the three games today.

They come from Groups A and B as the second round of group fixtures get going.

We’re already underway in the Group B encounter between Finland and Russia in Saint Petersburg and there’s no score so far. You can follow that one by clicking here.

Then at 5pm it’s our feature attraction - Turkey vs Wales.

And to cap things off at 8pm, also from Group A, is the meeting of Italy and Switzerland. If Italy win that, they’ll be pretty much through to the last-16.

It was far from their greatest performance but Wales came away from Saturday’s Euro 2020 opener against Switzerland with a potentially crucial point.

That Kieffer Moore header and those vital saves by Danny Ward made the difference in Baku and the key now is to build on it against Turkey this afternoon.

It won’t be easy. Turkey have their own point to prove after taking something of a hiding at the hands of Italy in last Friday’s tournament opener.

Viewed by many as potential dark horses at the Euros, they simply have to win here to prevent their dream crumbling into dust.

But they’ll have the advantage of a passionate and partisan crowd behind them at the Baku Olympic Stadium.

Turkey and Azerbaijan are strong allies and there will be plenty of Turkish support in the stadium.

With Italy still to come, Wales would really do with all three points here but a draw would keep them alive.

Welcome along to our coverage of this 5pm kick-off UK time. There’s plenty of build up to come with me Adam Shergold before Danny Gallagher takes over for full match commentary.
