Portugal could seal their spot in the World Cup last-16 with a win over Uruguay this evening.
As has been the case since their Euro 2016 triumph, Fernando Santos’ side haven’t proven convincing and were even somewhat fortunate to come through their opening Group H tussle with Ghana with all three points.
Uruguay, meanwhile, were hardly the most expansive outfit during their draw with South Korea but certainly have the quality in attack capable of hurting Portugal.
