Slovakia are chasing a third successive appearance at the European Championship. They made into the last 16 in 2016 but faced early group-stage elimination in the previous edition. They have won three games out of four in their respective group and are yet to lose a game. Francesco Calzona’s side beat Bosnia-Herzegovina, Iceland and Liechtenstein but it will be the first game against Portugal.

The Falcons are optimistic to finish in the top two as they are three points ahead of Luxembourg who held them for a goalless draw. The hosts are going through a 7-game unbeaten run and they have kept clean sheets in each of their last four European qualifying games.

On the other hand, Portugal have maintained their 100% winning record in the Euro qualifying campaign as they won all four games. Roberto Martinez’s side won against Bosnia-Herzegovina, Luxembourg, Liechtenstein and Iceland. During this run, they netted 14 goals and kept four clean sheets. In their previous game, they beat Iceland in Ronaldo’s 200th game and he scored the only goal.

Portugal stands along with France and Hungary to maintain the best defensive record. They have extended their overall winning streak in Euro qualification to six. They have lost just one game in Europe out of the last 19 and their last loss came in 2019 against Ukraine. It should be an easy win for the Portuguese side.
