Georgia - Portugal. Predicted line-ups and latest news, – June 26, 2024

On 26 June, the final matches of the UEFA Euro 2024 group stage will take place. One of the matches will be the match between Georgia and Portugal.

Roberto Martinez's side have won two matches in the tournament and have already secured a place in the play-offs. The Georgians did not catch stars from the sky in their debut tournament, but even before the last match they still have a theoretical chance of making the play-offs.

For that, as loud as it sounds, they need to beat Portugal and hope for a draw in the parallel match between Türkiye and Czechia. Nevertheless, even in the case of departure, the Georgians can be satisfied with their debut performance at the European Championships.

If we talk about personnel issues, the only loss for the Portuguese will be the absence of Rafael Leão, who will miss the match through a collection of yellow cards. The participation of Diogo Jota and Gonçalo Ramos, who have health problems, is questionable.

But we can expect Cristiano Ronaldo in the main squad, who will lead the Portuguese with the captain's armband. Ahead of their Group F meeting with the Crusaders, Martinez confirmed that Diogo Costa will retain his place in the Portugal goal, meaning that backup goalkeepers Jose Sa and Rui Patricio are unlikely to feature at all in this summer's tournament.

After a decent point against Czech Republic last time out, Georgia are expected to field an unchanged squad for their last match in Group F.

Despite not scoring yet this summer, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia remains a key player for the Crusaders and will be looking to make his mark on Wednesday.

Having received a yellow card on Saturday, captain Guram Kashia must avoid another caution if he is to be ready for a potential 1/8 finals match.

Based on these facts, the Dailysports team has prepared predicted line-ups for the Georgia vs Portugal match.
