The first blockbuster knock-out game of the Euro 2020 is upon us as Belgium take on Portugal in Seville. Defending champions Portugal showed grit and determination to qualify for the round of 16 as one of the best third place sides. After their 4-2 demolition at the hands of Germany, things looked bleak for them but they bounced back in style against France. They have historically done well in big games at the Euros and Belgium will be well aware of the fact. As for opponents Belgium, they strolled through the opening three games with easy wins and pressure is on them to get away with the chokers tag. Euro 2020, Belgium vs Portugal: Cristiano Ronaldo, Kevin de Bruyne and Other Key Players To Watch Out For Round of 16 Fixture.
Kevin de Bruyne has recovered from the facial injury he suffered against Chelsea in the Champions League final and is all set to start against Portugal. Skipper Eden Hazard is also back in contention for a starting berth and his big game experience could come in handy. Romelu Lukaku is in the form of his life at the moment and Portugal will do well to contain the Inter Milan man. Axel Witsel and Youri Tielemans in midfield can drive Belgium forward with their technical expertise.
Out of form playmaker Bruno Fernandes could miss out on a starting place again for Portugal with Renato Sanches preferred. Joao Moutinho and Danilio Perera make up the midfield for the champions after a decent display against France. Skipper Cristiano Ronaldo is the leading goal scorer of the competition and Portugal are heavily dependent on their star man in attack.
