Portugal’s Corner Kicks Over 4.5

The Portuguese are known for their love of corner kicks, but in Qatar they do not serve as many, averaging just 4.33 corners per game. The Swiss serve and allow a total of 4.67 near their goal. It would be logical to assume that the Swiss will spend more time in defence and repel their opponents’ attacking impulses. Therefore, Portugal are likely to have at least five corner kicks.

Yellow Cards – Switzerland

The Portuguese team receive an average of 1.67 yellow cards per game, while Switzerland gets an average of 2.33. This data hints at a high probability of success for the Swiss on yellow cards.

Portugal vs Switzerland: Key Numbers & Markets

Preliminary review and match prediction for Portugal vs Switzerland

Portugal:

Portugal was top of the group with six points from three games. The Portuguese secured a play-off spot thanks to victories over Ghana and Uruguay.

In the final leg, Fernando Santos’s side lost to South Korea (1-2) with a second goal just minutes before the final whistle.

It was noticeable in the second half that the 2016 European champion, Portugal, was not burning with the desire to waste energy on a match that had no meaning for them.

The Portuguese played much better against Ghana and Uruguay, although their football was not to everyone’s liking. The Netherlands was similarly criticized but ended up beating the USA and progressing to the quarter-finals.

Cristiano Ronaldo has scored just one goal so far, converting a penalty against Ghana. In the game against Uruguay, the 37-year-old forward was also at first credited with the first goal but after careful examination of the episode, it was clear he had not touched the ball.

Switzerland:

Switzerland, meanwhile, finished second in their group, only behind Brazil on goal difference.

Murat Yakin’s team started the tournament with a victory over Cameroon (1-0). It was a case where the only positive aspect was the result.

Then came defeat by the Brazilians, who scored the only goal of the game ten minutes before the final whistle. Switzerland looked decent against such a powerful rival.

The key one for Switzerland was their win over Serbia (3-2). The opponents attacked well but played horribly in defence. Despite the minimal difference in the scoreline, the result was fair.

Portugal vs Switzerland: Probable Lineups

In our opinion, the teams will take to the field with the following line-ups:

Portugal: Costa – Dalot, Pepe, Dias, Cancelo – B. Silva, Neves, Carvalho – Fernandes – Felix, Ronaldo.

Switzerland: Sommer – Widmer, Akanji, Schar, Rodriguez – Freuler, Xhaka – Shaqiri, Sow, Vargas – Embolo.
