Португалия - Уругвай » Прогноза (28.11.2022)

Португалия и Уругвай са считаните за фаворити в своята група, но докато Роналдо и компания започнаха с победа, то Уругвай трябваше да се задоволят само с равенство. Време е обаче и за сблъсъка помежду им, който ще хвърли много яснота в тази група.

След победата си над Гана с 3:2, Португалия излизат уверени и със самочувствие. Тимът добре осъзнава, че първото място е доста по-добре от второто, но също така че равенството би ги устройвало, тъй като ще запази лидерството им. След това си 0:0 срещу Южна Корея обаче за уругвай ситуацията е малко по-сложна и победата ще е доста важна за тях. Истината е, че те имат достатъчно класни имена в състава си, за да я постигнат.

Португалия умеят да вкарват, но този път смятам, че няма да имат много възможности да го направят. В последните си осем мача във всички надпревари Уругвай са допуснали едно единствено попадение.

On Monday night, Portugal and Uruguay clash in Group H of the World Cup in a game that could have big implications on who makes it to the knockout stages of the competition.

Fernando Santos’ team kicked off their World Cup campaign with a 3-2 win over Ghana. The win was a nervous one, as the Selecao came close to conceding a last-gasp equaliser. However, as it stands, another victory would see Portugal qualify for the next stages of the tournament.

The victory was the Selecao’s third in their last four international matches. The game also saw Portugal score at least three goals for the third time in four outings.

Portugal heads into the competition with a relatively poor recent record at World Cups, and even with the win in their opening game, they have still won just two of their last five matches in the competition.

The Albiceleste opened their World Cup with an uninspiring display in a 0-0 draw against South Korea. The draw means that there could be pressure on the South Americans to get a result from this game.

One positive for Uruguay from the draw in their opening match is that they maintained their stellar recent defensive record, as they have now kept clean sheets in seven of their last eight international matches.

Uruguay has a mixed recent record at the World Cup of late, as they have now failed to win in two games. However, the Albiceleste had won their previous four games in the competition.

Portugal has no reported injuries or suspensions for this clash, so could name an unchanged starting line-up from last time out. Uruguay are still without Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo, who looks unlikely to play in the group stages.

There is not much between these teams, and it is a hard game to call. I believe this game will likely be tight and end in a draw.
