Georgia vs Portugal: Euro 2024 Group Stage Prediction Match Details
On June 26, at the Veltins Arena in Gelsenkirchen, Georgia will face Portugal in the third and final round of Group F in Euro 2024. The 2016 Euro winners have already qualified, but they will aim for a 100% win record in the group stage.
Georgia Preview & Form
Georgia’s chances of advancing to the Euro 2024 final 16 now seem slim, as they have only earned one point from their first two matches. The Georgians are aiming for their first victory in a major tournament. In the first round, Georgia performed well against Turkey, creating several scoring opportunities, but ultimately lost 1-3. They then managed a crucial 1-1 draw against the Czech Republic. The winless streak leaves Georgia at the bottom of the table with just one point. One prominent issue for Georgia has been their defense, as they have only kept four clean sheets in their last ten matches. However, a victory in this match would likely secure their spot in the playoffs.
Portugal Preview & Form
Portugal has advanced to the last 16 of the competition after a strong start to the tournament. They began with a 2-1 victory over Czechia, with Francisco Conceicao scoring the winning goal in added time. They followed this up with an impressive 3-0 win over Turkey in their last match, securing their place in the last 16. Ronaldo, who has yet to score in the tournament, will aim to help his team achieve a perfect group stage for the first time since 2006. Roberto Martinez’s team has been in impressive form, recording victories in 15 of their last 17 matches.
