We head to Portugal for Matchday 5 of the Nations League A. Portugal, the leader of Group 4, hosts Denmark in an effort to hold onto second place. It’s a tough task for the visitors, who are under pressure heading into kickoff. With Portugal being the top team in the group after four matches, it’s hard to imagine the Danes pulling off an upset... especially since the Seleção has already scored four goals against this same team in front of its home crowd.
Suffice it to say that only an upset could save the current second-place team. Unless, of course, the Portuguese are taking Cristiano Ronaldo’s retirement to heart, which could lead to a backlash from Braga and its 30,000 fans.
