With the likes of France, Germany and Portugal tossed into this qualifying section, Group F can easily be regarded as Euro 2020’s ‘Group of Death’. Complete outsiders in this difficult group, Hungary will have their work cut-out to secure qualification.

Meanwhile, Portugal are a much better outfit, and huge favorites to reach the latter stages of the competition. They have enough quality in their ranks to progress past the first hurdle, and will be aiming for victory in this opener.

Hungary vs Portugal Team News

Following their heroics in the early 90s, where they enjoyed some major successes in the European Championship, Hungary went a downward spiral subsequently. They failed to appear in the competition until making it into the Euro 2016 finals.

Hungarians were over the moon as they celebrated their return to Europe’s grandest footballing stage at the time. Despite being huge underdogs in their group, they managed to topple the pack, even edging eventual champions Portugal to that top-spot.

However, Hungary’s fairytale run was brought to an abrupt end in the last-16, with Belgium taking them to the cleaners in a humiliating 4-0 rout. Now, Magyarok have managed to secure another ticket to the Euro finals, and will be making another appearance this year.

Impressively, Hungary have remained unbeaten in each of their preceding 11 matches across all competitions. In fact, they recorded emphatic victories over the likes of San Marino and Andorra in that time. Surely, morale will be on a high in the Magyars’ camp.

Portugal, on the other hand, are the best team in Europe at the moment, having clinched the Euro 2016 and inaugural Nations League titles in the past five years. Now, they are seeking a second successive triumph in this competition.

But they will be made to bend over backwards to secure this, given their difficult qualifying section. In preparation for the Euros, A Selecao were solid in their warmup matches, following up a goalless draw to Spain with a 4-0 drubbing of Israel.

It is fair to say they boast one of the strongest squads in the tournament, and even have the legendary Cristiano Ronaldo in their ranks. Should Portugal play at optimum level on Tuesday, they shouldn’t have to break a sweat to see off Hungary.

Hungary vs Portugal Predictions

Portugal may be on a six-game unbeaten run at the moment, but the Hungarians are sporting an even better record of eleven successive games without defeat. Surely, A Selecao won’t have it all their way in this contest.

While the Magyars held Portugal to a draw back in Euro 2016, they shouldn’t dwell too much on that result, given the massive changes in the Navigators’ squad ever since. We will go out on a limb to back the Portuguese for an outright win.
