Forecast
Portugal and Spain look like equal opponents
Portugal take on Spain at home on Tuesday 27 September. This is the decisive match for first place in the Nations League group. According to the standings, Spain can only win. Luis Enrique's side have snapped their unbeaten streak against Switzerland. The game revealed the Spanish side's long-standing problems. A high percentage of ball possession and passive attacking. Spain allowed their opponents five shots on goal. This is one of the worst performances in recent times. Luis Enrique admitted that the match was weak, but hopes for a kind of transformation against Portugal. The coach continues to use a false-nine scheme. Spain still lack a consistent forward striker. At the same time, the style of play has not been lost. Spain dominate in most games. If we take the Nations League specifically, the Red Fury had two classic games against the Czech Republic and Switzerland earlier. Confident victories, but with the total less. The current Spanish team has an obvious disadvantage - there is no quality depth in the squad. Against Switzerland, the reserves did not help much to change the game. Portugal's performance against the Czech Republic was surprisingly powerful. It was an all-out defeat - 4-0. Now the team looks significantly revitalized and motivated. The attacking group began to impress not only by name, but also by the quality of football. Fernandes, Silva, Leau, Ronaldo, Jota - the stars looked inspired against the Czech Republic. In the big matches from Portugal, such play has not been seen in a long time. In the first leg against Spain, the meeting ended in a 1-1 draw. The clash was fairly even. Against the Red Fury, Portugal will even at home agree to give up control of the ball and act as number two. Such a model has been practised by Santos for a long time. The bookmakers have the home side as the clear favourites, but the tournament aspect is important. A draw suits the home team, while Spain have big problems in terms of attacking play. There is great temptation for Portugal to be very cautious on the counterattack. Leão is one of the best players in the world when it comes to quick transitions. In such a situation, Spain won't be able to open up much either. At the moment, the opponents have their pluses and minuses, but are equal in strength. Given that a draw will not be a big problem for Portugal, such a result is very likely. The visitors will have a positional advantage. The match does not look too productive. Previously, the opponents have played four consecutive games on the scoreline.
