Portugal Face Netherlands In UEFA Nations League Final
We’re into the full flow of international football for the summer, and that’s an exciting position for a lot of fans to be in. Sure, some are going to miss seeing their team on a week to week basis, but this also gives us a chance to get a taste of last summer’s World Cup once again. Obviously, it’s not quite going to be on the same kind of scale which is to be expected,

Portugal to Ease to Opening Victory in Euro 2020 Qualifying
After going undefeated in four games, Portugal qualified for the Nations League finals this summer, mainly at the expense of Italy who finished in behind them. That was a bit of a surprise really, although they did show glimpses of real promise in the World Cup last summer. Now their task is a simple one, to prove that their performances in the Nations League were not a fluke, and that they can compete with the best in Europe.

Portugal to Wrap Up Nations League Campaign in Style
The Nations League group stages come to an end on Tuesday night, with this game featuring Portugal and Poland the only game from the top tier. While it is the highest quality game on show, there is nothing to play for here for either team, Portugal have already won the group, while Poland are already confirmed as being relegated to the second tier. Having said that, this will be the last chance that players from both teams get the chance to impress for a few months at international level so I still expect to see a decent game here between these two,

Italy & Portugal Collide Once Again
Here we are again – stuck in the middle of an international break with nowhere to turn. Ironically enough it seems like more fans are starting to talk about things like the UEFA Nations League more so than they have done in the past, but it’s taken a long, long time for us to get to this point. Well, not that long, but you can understand where we’re coming from. There are still things about the league that we’d change and alter,
Scotland Face Big Task Against Portugal
The UEFA Nations League has been catching the attention of most football fans over the last few days, given that domestic football has taken a back seat to the international break. Alas, while that may make sense, there are also a parade of different friendlies that have caught our eye too. Of course, the need for friendlies is something that often confuses the masses, although we’re confident in saying that we’re going to get an entertaining game out of the encounter that we’re choosing to focus on.

Poland & Portugal Battle In Nations League
Domestic football has been put on pause for a few weeks, as is usually the case at this time of year. Instead, we’ll be enjoying some international football, some of which will be great, and some of which will not. The parade of friendlies tend to leave a sour taste in most fans’ mouths, mainly because there just doesn’t really seem to be any kind of meaning behind the games. Sure, we can get some great moments and goals out of them,

Portugal & Italy Attempt To Live Up To Expectations
Football is a funny game, and just when we think we’ve got all of the answers, the questions change. There are no two better examples of that, arguably, than the Premier League and the World Cup. We’ve spoken about the first pretty regularly, but since the WC came to an end earlier this summer, the focus has shifted pretty quickly back to domestic football. While we can completely understand why, and while we’d probably agree with that in earnest,
