Portugal Women vs Belgium Women

Portugal will be aiming to give themselves a qualification boost when they face Belgium in their final Group B fixture at the UEFA European Women's Championship.

The Portuguese need help from the other group game but must first fulfill their own end of the bargain. They have a good recent record in this fixture and should have the upper hand over Belgium, who are already eliminated.

Portugal Women News

Portugal gave themselves a lifeline in Group B after playing out a 1-1 draw with Italy in their previous fixture. They fell behind midway through the second half but struck back one minute from time thanks to Diana Gomes’ effort.

After suffering a 5-0 defeat to Spain in their opening fixture, that draw breathed some life into Portugal’s campaign. Francisco Neto's team will go into Friday's clash needing a win while also hoping Italy lose in the other group game.

Having found the net against Italy, Portugal will be looking to replicate their second-half performance on Friday. However, their defence remains vulnerable, having failed to keep a clean sheet in six of their last seven matches across all competitions, with five fixtures in that run producing over 2.5 goals.

Belgium Women News

Belgium come into this clash off the back of a 6-2 defeat to Spain in their previous fixture. They showed a bit of fight by coming from behind twice through Justine Vanhaevermaet and Hannah Eurlings, but capitulated after the break.

Having begun their campaign with a 1-0 defeat to Italy, Belgium are now eliminated from the Women's Euros. Elisabet Gunnarsdottir's team will be keen to salvage some pride from their final fixture, but their overall form has been poor, with seven defeats in their last 10 matches across all competitions.

The defeat to Spain highlights Belgium’s defensive vulnerability, and they are without a clean sheet in eight of their last 10 matches across all competitions. They have scored in five of the last eight matches in that run, with five of those fixtures producing over 2.5 goals.

Head to Head

Belgium claimed a 3-0 victory in a Women's UEFA Nations League clash in June to extend their record to five wins and one draw from eight matches. However, Portugal have won two of the last three meetings.

Verdict

Portugal Women v Belgium Women

Neither defence has shown much solidity in this competition and both teams are expected to score here. Five of Portugal’s last seven matches have produced over 2.5 goals, which is likely to be the outcome here.

Belgium's overall record in this fixture is solid, but Portugal have claimed the upper hand in recent meetings. The Portuguese have much on the line and should be fired up to earn the win here.
