Football Fans eagerly anticipate numerous matches around the globe, particularly on a day that aligns with Euros 2024. We at The Football Yeller are here to cover the Portugal vs Slovenia Predicted Lineups for the Euros 2024 Round of 16 Knockout Stages matchup that will take place on Monday, 1st July 2024, at the Deutsche Bank Park, in Frankfurt, Germany.
Portugal vs Slovenia Predicted Lineups Preview
In a friendly match earlier this year, Portugal and Slovenia have only faced each other once. Slovenia emerged victorious with a 2-0 scoreline in Ljubljana. As we approach the first knockout round at EURO 2024, it’s worth noting that Portugal has quite an impressive record.
They currently hold the title for the largest margin of victory in a round of 16 games at a major tournament (World Cup/EUROs). In the 2022 World Cup, they secured a remarkable 6-1 victory against Switzerland.
Slovenia is set to make history by competing in their inaugural knockout stage match at a major tournament (World Cup/EUROs), while Portugal, on the other hand, has an impressive track record with this being their 26th appearance in such a match.
After their victory in EURO 2016, Portugal’s performance in the knockout stages of major tournaments has been less than stellar, with three losses out of four games (W1). Portugal’s recent loss to Georgia halted their impressive streak of 12 consecutive victories in competitive matches.
It is worth noting that they have not suffered successive defeats in competitive games since EURO 2008, when they were defeated 0-2 by Switzerland in the group stage and 2-3 by Germany in the quarter-final.
Slovenia’s possession statistics at EURO 2024 have been quite low, with only two teams in the history of the UEFA European Championship advancing from the group stage with a lower average. These teams were Iceland at EURO 2016 and Sweden at EURO 2020.
Going into this Intense Round of 16 Fixture, Portugal has a win probability of 70%, whereas Slovenia has a win probability of 20%, and the possibility of Extra Time is 10%
