Predictions for Scotland vs Portugal
For the game Scotland vs Portugal, we predict Portugal to win 2-1, and this is why. Portugal are in unbeatable mode at the moment, and we don’t see Scotland standing in their way. The Scots can’t seem to pick up a point now having lost their last four games in all competitions.
Prediction: Portugal to Win – 1.69
We predict Scotland vs Portugal to produce over 2.5 goals, and this is why. When it comes to the number of goals scored, the Nations League has been a very entertaining competition when these two teams are involved. Both Scotland and Portugal’s six matches that were played to completion saw at least three goals scored in each of those matches.
Prediction: Over 2.5 Goals – 1.71
Match Preview for Scotland vs Portugal
Scotland suffered additional pain in the closing moments of their match against Croatia on Saturday after having an injury-time equalizer disallowed, sending them to a third consecutive UEFA Nations League loss. The Scots defeated eventual European winners Spain 2-0 in Glasgow more over eighteen months ago, but they have only triumphed against Georgia at home since then.
Following a flawless start to the cycle with a 3-1 victory against Poland, their adversary Portugal is getting closer to the knockout stages. Portugal is an experienced campaigner at this level, having won the inaugural UNL title in 2018/19. Though coach Roberto Martínez expressed satisfaction with their control of the Poland game, there is still work to be done, given that they conceded in all three encounters.
Predicted Starting Lineups for Scotland vs Portugal
Scotland: Gordon; Ralston, Souttar, Hanley, Robertson; Gilmour, McLean; Doak, McTominay, Christie; Dykes;
Portugal: Costa; Dalot, Dias, Veiga, Mendes; Fernandes, Neves, Silva; Neto, Ronaldo, Leao;
