Portugal have been perfect in the Nations League and were deserved winners in Denmark. Back at home, I expect the visitors have the capability to score but fall short once again.

Four Straight Wins for Portugal

Portugal have won all four Nations League matches to seal an early spot in the quarter-finals.

João Félix scored in a 1-0 win against Wales and netted first again in a 2-1 win in Norway where they had 38% possession, 12-22 shots and 1.04-2.52 xG.

The Seleção won 4-2 in Denmark where goals to João Cancelo and Gonçalo Ramos were cancelled out. Vitinha and Félix scored in the final 25 minutes to secure a deserved victory.

Jorge Jesus’ side beat Norway 2-1 in Porto where they fell behind. Cancelo equalised before the break and Ramos scored the winning goal late on, his third goal in three games.

Nuno Tavares, Tomás Araújo and Rafael Leão were called up before being released due to gitness concerns. Gonçalo Inácio and Flávio Nazinho were called up as a result.

Jesus has used the opportunity to call up some young players including Alberto Costa, Mateus Fernandes, Carlos Forbs, Rodrigo Mora, Geovany Quenda and Gustavo Varela.

Nuno Mendes is injured and Francisco Conceição is suspended. Nélson Semedo, Matheus Nunes, Samú Costa and Gonçalo Guedes haven’t been called up since the World Cup.

Cristiano Ronaldo recently announced his retirement after scoring a record 146 goals in 234 internationals.

Danes Defeated Twice

Denmark have been inconsistent in the Nations League, starting with a 3-2 defeat in Norway where they trailed 2-0 after 18 minutes.

Brian Riemer’s side returned to Copenhagen where they had 20-10 shots and 1.39-0.62 xG in a 2-0 victory over Wales.

The Danes remained at Parken Stadium where they went down 4-2 to Portugal. Goals to Mikkel Damsgaard and Rasmus Hojlund drew them level twice but there were no excuses after ending with 0.76-2.25 xG.

A Rasmus Hojlund was the difference in a 1-0 win in Wales where Denmark had 13-6 shots and 2.15-0.26 xG.

Forwards: Mikkel Damsgaard, Andreas Skov Olsen, Rasmus Hojlund, Gustav Isaksen, Jesper Lindstrom, Mohamed Daramy, William Osula

Andreas Christensen, Patrick Dorgu and Kasper Dolberg are injured. Riemer is likely to continue finding a spot for Victor Froholdt in his system.

Verdict

Portugal v Denmark

Denmark have the weapons to score in Porto but their defence has been found lacking against the top teams in Group A4. Portugal were too strong in Copenhagen and I expect the trend to continue on home soil.
