Portugal vs Czechia Prediction & Betting Tips - Euro
by Kennedy Kechula in Euro Predictions
Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal take to the Euro stage tonight!
After watching Germany, England, France and Spain, the Euros brings us Portugal's first appearance in Germany, against Patrik Schick's Czech Republic. And it would be an understatement to say that the 2016 European champions are eagerly awaited by the fans.
Roberto Martinez's men are aiming for their second European title. The ambition is backed by most bookmakers listing them as one of the favourites to win the title. Tonight's match is important to the Portuguises if they are to avoid a challenging match against Turkey on Saturday.
On the other hand, the Czech Republic are aiming to qualify. They will be trying to shake the odds in this evening's match. With 16 goals scored in their last 5 matches and a run of 7 consecutive games with at least one goal, the Czechs are not to be underestimated.
Ready for the show? It is expected to have sparkles tonight!

Portugal - Czechia: Form Analysis
Portugal have been the dominant side in their meetings with the Czech Republic that came after Euro 1996. They have four wins in four meetings, with the most recent coming in a 2022 Nations League encounter.
Ahead of this tournament, Portugal have been in great shape, winning 13 of their last 15 matches. However, two losses in their last four matches could be a pointer to some inconsistency creeping in.
The Portuguese did win their final warm-up game before heading to Germany, beating the Republic of Ireland 3-0. This win also marked Portugal’s first clan sheet in five matches yet they had kept nine in the previous 10 matches.
Roberto Martinez will however be happy to note that his team only failed to score once in the last 15 matches. Portugal have also not lost a competitive game since falling 1-0 to Morocco at the 2022 World Cup.
Portugal have been in great shape, winning 13 of their last 15 matches.
Unlike Portugal who topped their qualification group, the Czech Republic finished second in theirs, on 15 points, half the tally Portugal managed.
They’ve had good preparation and have injected desirable consistency in their run which makes them a dangerous side to come against.
The Czech may have lost four straight matches against Portugal, but they won’t come here as outright underdogs. In the run-up to this competition, they are unbeaten in seven matches, having drawn just one.
Ivan Hašek’s side completed preparations for this competition with a 2-1 win over North Macedonia, their fifth straight win. This win was also the fifth straight time that they scored more than a goal.
However, they only have two clean sheets in the last 11 matches and that will be the team’s major worry against this very attacking Portuguese side.
Both teams managed to score in each of Czech Republic’s last four matches.

Portugal & Czechia Squad Analysis
Portugal will once again parade an array of stars at the euros. However, the one player who still attracts a lot of focus is Cristiano Ronaldo.
At 39, it is expected this will be his last major tournament, as he makes a sixth appearance at the Euros. He has scored in each Euro tournament since making his debut in 2004 and will be a player to watch here too.
Another veteran, Pepe, is also in the team and could start here. Portugal’s great depth saw them overlook, among others, Renato Sanches, while Raphael Guerreiro is out injured.
The one player who still attracts a lot of focus is Cristiano Ronaldo.
Czech Republic, on the other hand, will not have Michal Sadilek for the tournament after a freak bike injury.
They’ll however benefit from the experience of the West Ham duo of Vladimir Coufal and Tomas Soucek.
In attack, Bayer Leverkusen’s duo of Patrik Schick and Adam Hlozek offer great options in a largely home-based squad.
