Portgual host Denmark in the second leg of their UEFA Nations League quarter-final tie on Sunday 23 March, at 7:45 pm (UK time). Denmark hold a slender 1-0 lead heading into the second leg.
Bruno Fernandes to Score or Assist (5/2 with BetMGM)
In what has been a miserable campaign for Manchester United, Bruno Fernandes has been one of the only players who has consistently performed at a high level. The Portuguese is in fantastic form at the moment with seven goals and three assists in his last seven starts for his club. For his national side, Bruno provided a goal or assist in four of his five Nations League group-stage matches, and he looks like a solid price here at 17/10
Portugal to Win and Both Teams to Score (13/5 with Betfair)
All four of Portugal’s victories in the UEFA Nations League group stage featured both teams getting on the scoresheet. A Selecao are unbeaten in their last seven matches across all formats, while Denmark are winless in their last four (D2 L2). That all changed in the last game but we’re expected both teams to revert to form in this one.

How both teams go into Portugal vs Denmark
A goalless draw in Leskovac left Denmark feeling delighted, while Serbia were left frustrated. The result allowed Denmark to join group winners Spain in the quarterfinals. Key saves by Kasper Schmeichel kept the hosts at bay, and Serbia’s chances of finding a breakthrough were further hindered when Strahinja Pavlović was sent off in the 90th minute. Denmark finished second in Group A4 with eight points, eight points behind Spain and two points ahead of Serbia. Switzerland ended up being relegated, finishing at the bottom of the group with just two points.
On the other hand, Portugal was thrilled with their campaign, especially after having failed to qualify for the knockout stages in the last two competitions. Portugal topped Group A1, finishing unbeaten with 14 points from 18 available, thanks to four wins and two draws. They’ve got it all to do, however, having to overturn a 1-0 defeat in the first leg.
Denmark team news
There should be few surprises in the Denmark side, with veteran stars Kasper Schmeichel and Christian Eriksen featuring. Eriksen is currently the active Danish player with the most international goals (43) and appearances (140).
Portugal team news
Head coach Roberto Martinez took advantage of the last international break to rest some of Portugal’s star players and to give opportunities to new faces and those who are on the fringes of his first team. Key players such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Bernardo Silva, Diogo Jota, and Bruno Fernandes are expected to return for the upcoming matches.
