Portugal are looking to book their spot at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar this evening as they face North Macedonia in their playoff final.
Manchester United stars Cristiano Ronaldo and Bruno Fernandes will be among those in action as Portugal look to confirm their place at the tournament later in the year. Manchester City’s Bernardo Silva and Joao Cancelo will also feature, while Diogo Dalot will also hope to make an impact.
The 2016 European champions missed out on automatic qualification for the World Cup back in November after finishing second in their group behind Portugal. Having overcome Turkey in their semi-final on Thursday though, they are now just one game away from booking their place at this year’s tournament.
