Portugal – France, Euro 2020 Prediction

😔 Portugal with a heavy loss in the last round

Portugal showed a terrible game in defense in the big match against Germany. The sailors even took the lead in the result, but then the Germans defeated them and turned it to 4-1. It seems that there is a certain lack of balance in the team. In the midfield are the biggest problems so far, not in defense, because the game in defense is not only for the defenders. The Portuguese know very well that they are currently in a good position to qualify and even if they lose, they still have a chance because of their goal difference.

📑 The French also didn’t do well

France could not beat Hungary by finishing 1-1 with the Hungarians. In reality, they scored from one chance. It is very important to comment, however, that Les Bleus had at least 2 great goal chances in the 1st half. With their first goal, things changed and Hungary would hardly have a chance. Of course, this draw is not fatal for France and their long-term strategy. What’s worse is that Dembele is injured and will probably not participate in the tournament again.

 Les Bleus are in a better position, but even a draw will be enough for Portugal

We believe that at the moment Portugal are not ready enough to beat France in a direct match. However, they will not need a win to advance. For sailors, a draw will do a perfect job. For France, this would mean 2nd place in the standings if Germany beat Hungary, which could send them against England. However, it seems to us that after the terrible performance in defense of Portugal, they will now be far more cautious in this regard and will get the point out. Prediction – Draw at 2.87.
