Portugal faces France in round 3 of the Euro group stage. The match will be played on Wednesday, June 23rd at Puskás Aréna (Budapest)
The Portuguese national team is powerful and efficient. Moreover, it looks very convincing. The Portuguese defeated the Hungarians and scored four goals against Germany. Unfortunately for Fernando Santos, half of the goals were scored into the own net. In the second round, within four minutes, Rui Patricio was outplayed twice by his compatriots, Dias and Guerreiro. The eternal trump card of the Portuguese national team is Cristiano Ronaldo. The Juventus midfielder scored three goals in two games and assisted his teammate. With such a leader, the Portuguese can even count on winning in the last game of the group stage.

Didier Deschamps’s men showed a strange start to the tournament. And so far, it is very difficult to understand what France is capable of in this tournament. The Blues beat Germany due to an own goal scored by Hummels, and then they unexpectedly shared points with the Hungarians (1-1). And we remember that these Hungarians conceded three times from the Portuguese at the end of the first-round match. The only scorer of the French national team is Griezmann, while Mbappe, Giroud, and Benzema don’t have productive actions. And don’t forget that Deschamps himself assures the football community that his team has a fantastic attacking line. Perhaps it will prove itself at a crucial moment?
For the 36-year-old Ronaldo, this is probably the last European Championship in his career. However, looking at the form of the Portuguese, no one will be surprised if he plays at the sixth EURO. Nevertheless, he clearly does not intend to leave UEFA EURO 2020 already at the group stage. And the team will support their leader in striving to get as far as possible. Although the French are the main favorites of the tournament according to many bookmakers, they have not yet demonstrated anything beyond natural at this EURO. However, their gains are already enough to continue the fight in the knockout rounds, albeit from third place. It is possible that the French will try to advance to the next stage with minimal forces. And the Portuguese may play their best match and win again. In any case, football in the upcoming game is unlikely to be boring.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.0 goals scored
