Team News

Portugal
Poland
  • Pepe is back available following a suspension, though Ruben Dias and Jose Fonte formed a partnership that earned Portugal an all important point in Italy and will hope to keep their places.
  • With top spot already assured Fernando Santos may rotate his pack from the stalemate on Saturday, so expect a much changed lineup.
  • Napoli defender Mário Rui is suspended for the home side after picking up his second booking of the competition last time out.
  • Manchester City ace Bernardo Silva is also unavailable for Portugal after picking up an injury during the international break.
  • With Maciej Rybus injured, Artur Jedrzecczyk will conitnue at left-back, while Lukasz Fabianski and Wojciech Szczesny compete for the spot in goal.
  • Robert Lewandowski has withdrawn from the Poland squad with a minor knee injury and will need to be replaced up front.
  • Krzystof Piatek is out of form after an electric start to the season, which could hand Napoli striker Arkadiusz Milik the chance to impress.

Prediction

  • Tuesday night's match in Guimaraes means little, with Portugal having been the first team to book a place in next year's semi-finals, while Poland were relegated to League B during the last international break.
  • The hosts may well use the chance to give fringe players some playing time as a result, confident of overcoming a Poland side that have been struggling for some time now.
  • The visitors will want to restore some pride at the least but they aren't functioning as a team right now and will struggle to earn all three points here.

  • Poland, recently, win when it's meaningless, so, X2

  • the result isn't hard to predict as Poland doesn't have a real manager.

  • 1-0

  • Portugal already won the group so i would go for X2, probably key players from Portugal won't play.

  • " Robert Lewandowski should lead the line on his own." - Lewandowski does not play in this match.
