Few nations have been as impressive throughout EURO qualification than Portugal. They will play their final away match in Group J on Thursday, as they look to extend their perfect record with a victory in Liechtenstein.
It has been a stunning qualification campaign to this point for Portugal, as they have already assured their passage through to the EUROs next summer after winning all eight of their Group J matches. Their records at both ends of the pitch have been hugely impressive, as they have netted a staggering 32 goals and have conceded just twice.
Their performances throughout the campaign have seen their odds for EURO success next summer shorten drastically. Their impressive performances continues against Bosnia in the previous international break, as they recorded a straightforward 5-0 victory in the road. Cristiano Ronaldo netted twice in that success, while further goals were added by Bruno Fernandes, Joao Cancelo, and Joao Felix.
Liechtenstein was the first nation to exit the race for a qualifying spot at the EUROs next summer, as they sit bottom of the Group J standings having failed to pick up a single point from their eight matches. They have scored just once across their matches in qualifying, while they have allowed a group-high of 25 goals already.
Their most recent defeat was suffered in the previous international break, as they were easily beaten in Iceland. They will be massive outsiders in the betting for this fixture on Thursday, and it is incredibly challenging to overlook their poor defensive record when they come up against a free-scoring Portugal side.
As expected, Portugal boasts an excellent record in this fixture, as they have won seven of the eight previous meetings between the sides. The only positive result for Liechtenstein came in the form of a 2-2 draw in a World Cup qualifier in 2004. But, they have lost each of the previous two against Portugal, conceding seven goals and failing to find the back of the net.
It could be a case of by how far Portugal win by on Thursday, as they will be incredibly short in the match result market. We could see the visitors netting at least five goals against their rivals, with Ronaldo and Fernandes both standout selections to find the back of the net.
