If Turkey decides to go to war and commits some of its best divisions, than it won't really be a match as the Turkish Army will bulldoze and roll through. There is not a single entity in Syria that will be able to stop the Turkish Steamroller. At best, they might be able to harass Turkish axis of advancement by attacking them at their flanks, but that's about it. It does not matter if the opposition in Syria is worn out, even fresh they simply don't have the discipline, training and the necessary equipment to stop the Turkish Juggernaut.
You forget a little thing called "Russian tactical nukes". Is Turkey willing to bet that the Russians wont use them? Very risky proposition. Russian military doctrine calls for early use of tactical nukes in a European conflict, so to used them against Turkey would be even easier. Good luck.
