Portugal take on France in this heavyweight Euro 2024 quarter-final clash at the Volksparkstadion in Hamburg.
Portugal vs France Prediction
Portugal went all the way to a penalty shootout in their round of 16 clash with Slovenia, progressing thanks to three fine stops from goalkeeper Diogo Costa.
France were the better side, but only sealed their place in the last eight thanks to an own goal from Belgium defender Jan Vertonghen on Monday.
In a repeat of the 2016 final, both sides will be battling to progress to the semi-final on what is unanimously considered the tougher side of the draw.
It will be tight, but France's attacking prowess could see them edge through, perhaps after extra time.
Score prediction: Portugal 1-2 France

Portugal vs France Betting Tips
Portugal’s matches at the tournament so far have seen an average of 11.25 corners per game but they are yet to face a side that possesses the quality of France. This is true of Roberto Martinez’s overall tenure. He had taken charge of 19 Portugal matches, which have seen 9.63 corners on average, but they are yet to face another side who considered a real contender ahead of major tournaments. The last meeting between these sides came back in 2021, there was just one corner on that occasion. There were nine corners when the teams met at Euro 2016.
There have been nine corners or less in three of France’s four matches in this competition so far. They faced Belgium in the last round and there were just seven corners in that match.
