For the 2nd match of the 2nd group of the first division of the Nations League, Portugal welcomes Switzerland at the Estadio Jose Alvalade in Lisbon. The group is completed by Spain and the Czech Republic, the first of the group advances to the Final 4 of the tournament while the latter is relegated to the B category.
Portugal had a positive start to the group as they drew 1-1 in Seville against Spain on Thursday. She was not good in the first half and with a goal she conceded in the 25th minute, she went back to the locker room to score. In the second half she increased her performance and in 82 ώθηκε she was justified by reaching a draw.
Ronaldo came to the match from the bench as Fernando Santos due to the consecutive games in a few days preferred to have several changes, today however he is expected to be in the starting lineup.
Portugal these matches as preparation for the World Cup but being the holder of the first title in the history of the Nations League will certainly seek a great distinction in the organization.
Switzerland fought it in midweek in Prague against the Czech Republic but in the end could not avoid defeat with 2-1. She did not make a bad appearance but on the one hand she paid for her many defensive mistakes and on the other hand the excellent appearance of the opposing goalkeeper. He was back in the score after a big defensive error from 11΄, but he managed to bring the match to a close just before the break. In the second half he came in slowly again and with an own goal he was again behind the score, he increased his speed in the last half hour but he could not score and fatally did not get anything from the match.
An out-of-schedule defeat for Switzerland that could lead to adventures, no matter how early, in terms of avoiding the last place of the group and relegation to the B category of the tournament.
Portugal comes from a positive result and tonight has the opportunity in front of its audience to get its first victory in the group. Switzerland for its part wanted but could not in Prague, tonight is expected to have an even more difficult task. I think Portugal has a big winning lead and will take it relatively easily.
Proposal: Portugal - Switzerland 1 & 1,5 with odds of 2.20
