Slovakia vs Portugal 08.09.2023 Prediction: EURO Qualification

Match Overview

Portugal travel to take on Slovakia in a match in the fifth round of their Group J EURO qualification competition on 8 September, Friday at the Stadion Tehelne Pole. Slovakia will feel overwhelmed by the Portuguese attackers but there is no need for them to feel so even before they have stepped onto the field. Portugal, however, do have a very strong outfit.

Key Highlights 

Slovakia will feel confident owing to the fact that they have not been defeated in the last seven matches that they have played. Add to that the fact that they have been unbeaten in their last four home games, and we have a really confident outfit. At the time of writing, they are also ranked in the second position of their group's league table with 10 points.

Injury Report

Neither Slovakia nor Portugal have any major injuries in their team. This will act as a big blessing for them as it will allow them to select their best possible starting lineups for this game.

Prediction

We expect BTTS (both teams to score) in this match. Despite Portugal being the stronger side on paper, Slovakia can very well hold their own when put under pressure. There have been no previously recorded contests between these two teams and this will be the first time that they will face off against each other. It will be an interesting game for sure.
