Portugal looked set to be one of Euro 2024’s favourites after wins against Czech Republic and Turkey early in the tournament, but a shock defeat to Georgia makes their first knock-out clash with Slovenia a promising fixture.

Roberto Martinez’s side were undone by the neutrals’ favourites Georgia to close their Group F fixtures, falling 2-0 but ending the group stage on top regardless. Slovenia meanwhile proved their defensive ability by holding England to a 0-0 draw and progressing to the knock-out stages of a European Championships for the first time in history.

Coverage returns to the BBC for tonight’s 8pm kick-off, following France v Belgium at 5pm.

Who are the BBC commentators for Portugal vs Slovenia at Euro 2024?

Guy Mowbray will lead commentary on this game. Mowbray has been the Beeb's main commentator for over a decade and is synonymous with big-game football. He led his first World Cup final at just 26, the youngest to do so in history.

Joining him will be Martin Keown as co-commentator. Keown was renowned as a fierce defender, most notably as three-time Premier League champion with Arsenal. Capped 43 times, he played in all three of England’s outings at Euro 92.

He will be joined by Alan Shearer, Micah Richards and former Portugal defender Jose Fonte. Fonte won the 2016 Euros with his nation, and is still a professional footballer for Braga at the age of 40.
