Liechtenstein vs Portugal Preview & Prediction
Portugal have already booked top spot in Group J, winning all eight of their qualifying matches. Liechtenstein, on the other hand, are polar opposites, sitting bottom of the group having lost all of their games.
The home side are one of five European nations yet to gain a single point. They’re also in the midst of a 33-game winless run, losing 28 of their last 29 matches. In fact, it’s been over five years since they last won a match at home.
Despite missing the likes of Rafael Leao, Pepe and Pedro Neto, we’re expecting Portugal to continue their 100% winning campaign here.
Prediction: Liechtenstein 0-5 Portugal
Liechtenstein vs Portugal Betting Tips
- Portugal Over 4.5 Goals @ 7/10
- Joao Felix To Score 2+ @ 23/10
- Combined Bet Builder Odds: 3/1
Liechtenstein vs Portugal Betting Tip 1: Portugal Over 4.5 Goals @ 7/10
Limiting Portugal’s goalscoring will be a tough challenge for the struggling hosts. Roberto Martinez’s side are playing ruthlessly attacking football, averaging four goals per game; no team in Europe is averaging more.
The reverse fixture ended 4-0, so a similar scoreline should be expected here, given the gulf in quality between the sides.
Portugal have an array of attacking talent that will all be licking their lips at Liechtenstein’s woeful defensive record. The hosts have conceded 25 goals across their eight qualifying matches, averaging over four per game.
Liechtenstein vs Portugal Betting Tip 2: Joao Felix To Score 2+ @ 23/10
Among their attacking options is Barcelona’s Joao Felix. With Leao and Neto absent from the squad due to injury, Felix should be a shoe-in to start in the front three.
Despite some encouraging performances, the 24-year-old is without a goal in his last six matches at club level. His last goal came in Portugal’s 5-0 win at Bosnia and Herzegovina in October.
Liechtenstein serves as the perfect opportunity for Felix to find some goalscoring form, and with the likes of Bernardo Silva and Bruno Fernandes providing the service, there should be plenty of opportunities for him.
