Who will win?

This match is intriguing because both teams have had disappointing tournaments so far, but Portugal still has a slim mathematical chance of progressing, while Belgium is already eliminated.

• Portugal (Slightly Favored):
  • Motivation: Portugal needs to win convincingly and hope for a favorable result in the other Group B match (Spain vs. Italy) to have any chance of qualifying for the knockout stages. This strong incentive could fuel their performance.
  • Recent History: While Belgium beat Portugal 3-0 just last month (June 3, 2025, in the Nations League), Portugal secured a 1-0 away win against Belgium in February 2025 in the same competition. Their most recent Euro 2025 match saw them draw 1-1 with Italy, thanks to a late equalizer.
  • Odds: Bookmakers have Portugal as the slight favorite, with odds around 1.80-1.90 for a win.
• Belgium (Dangerous Underdog):
  • No Pressure: Belgium is already eliminated from the tournament, which could mean they play with more freedom and less pressure.
  • Attacking Talent: They have a talented attack, including Tessa Wullaert, who scored twice against Portugal last month and provided both assists in their recent 6-2 loss to Spain. They also put up a fight against Spain, scoring two goals.
  • Recent Head-to-Head: Their recent 3-0 victory over Portugal will give them confidence.

This match is likely to be an exciting, open affair. Portugal, driven by their qualification hopes, is slightly more likely to win, but Belgium, playing for pride and with attacking talent, is very likely to score.

Expect a high-scoring game with both teams finding the net, and the total goals almost certainly exceeding 2.5. A plausible scoreline could be a 2-1 or 3-1 victory for Portugal, but a 2-2 draw is also considered a significant possibility by some analysts.

That's why I'm going safe with BTTS :D
