Portugal
The team with Fernando Santos took the first real trophies, won both at Euro-2016 and in the debut League of Nations. But gradually the cooperation with this mentor was exhausted, and even the relatively good results of the last world championship did not warrant the extension of the contract with the specialist. All the more so because he encroached on the sacred: he began to sit Ronaldo on the bench. His successor, Martínez, confidently overcame last year’s qualification, but they did not reach the quarterfinals of the Euros due to the success of Cristiano, who never scored. In the playoffs, he helped Diogo Kosta at first, he did not miss in the first round either in playing time or in the penalty shootout. But in the 1/4 with France, after another 0:0, eleven-meter goals were already lost. However, the result was considered satisfactory, and the Spanish specialist continued his work. Quite fortunately: the chosen ones started with three victories in the fall, and only in the final round in Glasgow ended with a zero draw. Now it is enough just not to lose to guarantee participation in the playoffs.

Poland
The national team is still steadily making its way to the final tournaments. But only with a creak. That the squad went to the world championship after success in the playoffs, that they got to the Euros because of face-to-face matches. Moreover, there Szczesny won a penalty shootout with Wales in the decisive match on the road. But already in Germany, this team was the first without a chance to get out of the group, it lost both first rounds, and only at the end it drew with France. However, Probezh kept the coaching post. But in the League of Nations, they started with a victory against Scotland, then they added only one point: they lost to Croatia and Portugal, and only in October they ended with a 3:3 draw with the checkered team.
Statistics of personal meetings
The chosen ones do not lose 6 head-to-head matches in a row. They won twice in regular time and, at the victorious Euro-2016, in a penalty shootout.
Forecast
Bookmakers do not believe that the guests will be hooked here even for a draw. You can bet on the hosts of the arena with a handicap of -1.5 goals (coefficient – 1.99).
