After breezing past Hungary on matchday one, Portugal go into matchday two with the aim of inflicting the same pain on a tricky German side.
Cristiano Ronaldo was undoubtedly the star of the previous show, netting two goals at the latter stages of the game to earn all three points for the Seleção.
Germany on the other hand suffered a heartbreaking 1-0 defeat to 2018 World Cup winners France and are coming into this game with the aim of making amends.
A tight affair expected
The two teams have quality all over the pitch and are likely to cancel each other out in this game. Germany have a strong defensive presence, led by Bayern Munich shot stopper Manuel Neuer whilst Portugal are led by Ronaldo.
Toni Kroos is also expected to pull the strings in midfield whilst Bruno Fernandes and Bernardo Silva are expected to delight the fans.
There will likely be goals in this game but the end result will probably be a draw. A scoring draw will serve investors really well.

Germany are slight favorites to win this one, with their odds priced at 2.30 by Betway whilst Portugal have their odds pinned at 3.15. A draw has been priced at 3.25.
