Belgium vs Portugal Team News

Belgium began the tournament with fitness doubts over Kevin de Bruyne and Eden Hazard but both key players started the final group game against Finland and should be available this weekend.

Nelson Semedo limped off in Portugal’s 2-2 draw against France on Wednesday evening and the Wolves full-back faces a race against time to be fit for Sunday, while Nuno Mendes also remains an injury doubt. 

Belgium vs Portugal Preview

Portugal’s three matches in the tournament so far have seen 13 goals scored and there is little doubt that their clashes against both France and Germany have been the most entertaining games of the competition.

Another open high scoring match looks likely in southern Spain with Belgium also in extremely impressive scoring form, having scored in each of their last 33 games and at least twice in nine of their most recent 12 matches.

The goals should flow once more on Sunday evening and both teams will be confident of finding the back of the net after strong performances in the final third at Euro 2020 so far.

Belgium vs Portugal Tips and Predictions

Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals is priced at 5/4 (2.25) and looks like a strong option.

Over 3.5 goals has paid out in both of Portugal’s last two matches in the tournament and is available at 5/2 (3.50) which could be appealing for a smaller stake.
