Group 2 league A presents a mouthwatering encounter between two European Elites in the Uefa Nations League this midweek as Portugal welcomes Spain to their home turf for the sixth round of matches. The match takes place on Tuesday, 27th September 2022, at the home turf of the host, the Estadio Municipal de Braga. Portugal has been excellent in recent weeks, and the results have largely been engineered by the talents at the team's disposal, despite their attack being spearheaded by the aging Ronaldo. They have recently swept teams apart to sit top of group two with 10 points. More so, they head into this tie on the back of an excellent 4-0 win against a depleted Czech Republic side to further make a statement to the rest of the world with an eye on the upcoming World Cup in November. In this tie, the home team comes up against a Spanish side who have had inconsistent outings in the Uefa Nations League. Spain head into this tie on the back of a 2-1 defeat against Switzerland. However, despite the setback last week, they have managed to rack up two wins and two draws in their last four matches to sit second on the group log. The defeat against the Swiss side last time out brought their unbeaten run to an end after four matches this term. However, the Spanish side will be stubborn to prevent another defeat on the road against a side they held to a 1-1 draw in their UNL opener back in June.

We predict this will be a very difficult tie for both sides that may end up with a draw for both sides. Furthermore, given previous meetings between these two sides, Spain has always found a way to frustrate the opposition as Portugal has failed to win against the Spanish side dating back to 2012 in five consecutive meetings. Five meetings previously between these two sides have ended in a draw, and we expect a similar outcome when they go head to head. However, with the unbeaten record Spain has at their disposal when on the road, we believe they will win or draw this game when they go head to head with the Portuguese side. We are backing the visitors to avoid a defeat this time as they have shown in previous meetings how stubborn and resilient they can be when they face more fierce opposition. Both sides will be wary of playing without caution to prevent unnecessary mistakes that may prove costly. However, with the defense line of La Roja’s side, which has countered the host in previous meetings to score fewer than expected goals, we believe they will contain the host as they have done on previous occasions to at least come out with a point at the end or the game.

本周中，2 组 A 联赛将在欧洲国家联赛中呈现两位欧洲精英之间令人垂涎的交锋，葡萄牙欢迎西班牙来到他们的主场进行第六轮比赛。比赛于 2022 年 9 月 27 日星期二在东道主布拉加市体育场举行。葡萄牙最近几周表现出色，尽管他们的进攻是由年迈的罗纳尔多带头的，但结果很大程度上是由球队可以支配的人才设计的。他们最近横扫球队，以10分位居第二组之首。更重要的是，他们以 4-0 的比分战胜了一支精疲力竭的捷克共和国队，以进一步向世界其他地区发表声明，着眼于即将到来的 11 月世界杯。在这场比赛中，主队遇到了一支在欧洲国家联赛中表现不稳定的西班牙球队。西班牙队以 2-1 击败瑞士队后进入这场比赛。然而，尽管上周遭遇挫折，但他们在最近四场比赛中取得了两胜两平的成绩，在小组赛中排名第二。上一场对阵瑞士队的失利让他们在本赛季四场比赛后的不败战绩结束。然而，西班牙方面将顽固地防止在客场再次击败他们在六月的 UNL 揭幕战中以 1-1 战平的球队。

我们预测这对双方来说都将是一场非常艰难的平局，最终双方可能会打成平手。此外，鉴于这两支球队之前的交锋，西班牙总是想方设法挫败对手，因为自 2012 年以来，葡萄牙连续五次交锋都未能战胜西班牙队。这两支球队之前的五次交锋都以平局告终，我们预计当他们正面交锋时会出现类似的结果。然而，凭借西班牙在客场保持不败的记录，我们相信他们将在这场比赛中获胜或平局。他们与葡萄牙队正面交锋。我们支持客队避免这次失败，因为他们在之前的会议上已经表明，当他们面对更激烈的反对时，他们是多么顽固和坚韧。双方都会谨慎行事，以免出现不必要的错误，这些错误可能代价高昂。然而，由于拉罗哈队的防线在之前的比赛中反击了东道主，进球数低于预期，我们相信他们会像以往一样遏制东道主，至少在比赛中取得一分。
