The group stage of the World Cup is coming to its climax, so the next game day will end the duel between the national teams of Portugal and Uruguay. The start of the match is scheduled for November 28 at 22:00 Moscow time. Our portal has prepared a forecast for you on the outcome of this confrontation.
Portugal
The real grandee in European football is the Portuguese national team, but it does not always perform well at the World Championships. The composition of the team is filled with stars and is perhaps the most balanced at the tournament, but the atmosphere is far from all right. The Portuguese failed in the selection group, but were able to qualify for Qatar through the playoffs. The problems in the team's defense were revealed in the first round, where the Portuguese defeated Ghana with great difficulty in a scoring shootout.
Uruguay
The Uruguayans easily got a ticket to Qatar, taking third place in the group after Brazil and Argentina. This team has not achieved great success for a long time, but it always performs confidently and is an unpleasant opponent for any team. The Uruguay national team has enough quality performers in the cage, but still there are problems in attack. So in the first round, the Uruguayans could not find the keys to the gates of South Korea, having painted a zero draw with the Asians.
Statistics and figures
- In the last match between these teams, Uruguay won with a score of 2:1.
- The Portuguese national team has a good series of two wins in a row.
- Uruguay has won only twice in their last five meetings.
Forecast
Portugal looks like a small favorite in this confrontation, which is now in good shape and has a more experienced and stellar selection of performers. Uruguay likes to play defensively, but has problems with the implementation of moments. I think the game will end in a draw.
