After gaining their first-ever Euros point over the weekend against the Czech Republic, they will travel to Gelsenkirchen to face Cristiano Ronaldo’s team.
But few will pick them to win this game as they are coming up against one of the strongest teams of the competition.
With wins over Czech Republic and Turkey, Roberto Martinez’s men have already advanced to the next round of Euro 2024.
When these two teams met for the first and only time to date, in 2008, Portugal won 2-0, and Cristiano Ronaldo and Pepe both started the match.
Georgia vs Portugal team news
Georgia’s lineup from the team that drew with the Czech Republic is probably not going to alter.
Portugal may make adjustments in ahead of the Round of 16 due to Rafael Leao’s suspension.
They intend to rest their main players, therefore Rúben Dias, Pepe, Vitinha, Bernardo Silva, and Cristiano Ronaldo are all strong prospects to be left out of the starting lineup.
