Portugal National Football Team
Portugal returned to the top of the table after a 4-0 win against the Czech Republic last week. The Selecao is in good form this year, with just one loss in 2022. The hosts have a perfect record at home this year — they have won all four games in Portugal.
Things are looking good for the Navigators heading into the final group game. They have lost just one of their last five games, picking up three wins and a draw. Fernando Santos’ Side is ahead of Spain by a point, and a win or draw would see Portugal qualify for the knockouts.
Spain National Football Team
Spain is in a difficult spot on Matchday 6. A recent 2-1 loss against Switzerland saw them drop to second. La Roja has seen their performances drop this year, and they are underdogs to win on all football betting sites.
Luis Enrique’s side has won only twice in the last five games, picking up two draws and a loss. Spain needs to beat Portugal away to reach the knockouts, which is quite a daunting task for the 2010 World Cup winners.
