Portugal vs Ireland Prediction and Match Preview

Portugal vs Ireland Prediction

The in-form Portugal team is ready to kick off their 2024 Euro Cup campaign with high spirits. They delivered a stunning performance in the qualifiers, remaining unbeaten in eight consecutive games to secure the top spot in Group F standings.

Portugal will aim to build momentum well before the campaign through friendly matches. However, their friendly display doesn’t seem that impressive. They lost two of the last three matches and will enter this match following a 1-2 defeat against Croatia. On Tuesday, Portugal will have a good opportunity to seal a victory as they faces an inconsistent Ireland, who was winless in seven of the last 10 matches and it is likely to affect their chances against a big team like Portugal.

• These two have locked horns 8 times in the past and the Portuguese side was unbeaten in six of them.
• Portugal has won three of their four clashes against Ireland at this venue and scored 11 goals while allowing just 3.

Portugal have scored 15 goals in their last five home matches. They have won four of those five matches. It is noteworthy that Portugal’s midfielder Bruno Fernandes has scored 4 goals in the last five matches at home.

On the other hand, Ireland lost three of the last four away matches and has leaked 5 goals in those three defeats while scoring just one. Since they leaked 11 goals in the four h2h clashes against Portugal on the road, we like to start with Portugal to win 3-0 as the main pick. Bruno Fernandes to score anytime will be our second pick for this match. Also, the goal trend of Portugal alone is more than enough to back Portugal -1.5 Asian Handicap as eight of the last nine home wins of the Portuguese side saw them winning this bet.
