Colombia vs Portugal
Double chance : Colombia or draw
Colombia are heading into this match with mixed feelings. They've won two of their last five games, including a big 6-3 victory on the road, but they also lost their most recent match 1-0. Overall, they've been scoring goals and showing they can be dangerous, even if they're a bit inconsistent. Portugal, on the other hand, are in rough shape. They've lost four of their last five games, including a heavy 5-0 defeat in their most recent outing, and have only managed one draw in that stretch. They're struggling badly to get results.
There are no recent meetings between these two teams to look at, so this feels like a fresh contest. Given that Colombia are playing at home and have shown they can win while Portugal are on a terrible run of losses, this match looks like it will be close, but with the home team having the edge. Expect Colombia to win this one.
