We said: Portugal 2-1 Czech Republic

The aggressive and positive approach the Czech Republic deployed against Spain should work to similar effect against a fatigued Portugal side, especially with Santos's options in the heart of defence being somewhat limited. However, the hosts were in magnificent attacking form themselves against Switzerland, and even with a number of changes in tow, we can only picture Santos's side picking up maximum points.
