On Friday night, the 2nd Euro 2024 quarterfinal matchup is going to be between Portugal and France. In this game, I predict that Portugal won't lose during the regular time.
This will be a very interesting matchup. Portugal is one of the favorites in the tournament. During the group stage, they had 2 wins and 1 loss but they lost to Georgia in the last game of the group. That didn't change much for them and they played with different players than usual. In the TOP 16 round, Portugal beat Slovenia in after penalty session. Portugal had a big ball control, but they couldn't convert into the net during the regular time. The same was in the extra period but in penalties, the goalkeeper Diogo Costo was phenomenal as he saved all 3 shots. Portugal has managed to create xG of 7.73 during the first four games while the xGA is 3.40.
France is also one of the tournament favorites but we can't say they have performed very well. In the group, France had only 1 win and 2 draws. In the TOP 16 round, France played against Belgium and they won 1:0 but the lone goal was an own goal. France created xG of only 1.06 despite having Kylian Mbappe on the roster. While France has scored 3 goals in this tournament, 2 of them were own goals and 1 was Mbappe's penalty. After 4 games, France has an xG of 6.94 and xGA of 2.63.
I see this game going into overtime. Yes, France is a slight favorite but I don't think there's a big margin between teams. Portugal has shown a better football and if we don't count the game against Georgia, they have conceded just once. Yes, also France has conceded just once but their performance gives some concerns. This could be a 50-50 game. Nobody will want to rush things, so this game going into an extra period.
周五晚上,2024年欧洲杯的第二场四分之一决赛将在葡萄牙和法国之间进行。在这场比赛中,我预测葡萄牙在常规时间不会输。
这将是一场非常有趣的比赛。葡萄牙队是本届世界杯的热门球队之一。在小组赛中,他们取得了2胜1负的战绩,但在小组最后一场比赛中输给了格鲁吉亚队。这对他们来说并没有太大的改变,他们和往常不同的球员一起比赛。在16强比赛中,葡萄牙在点球大战中击败斯洛文尼亚。葡萄牙有很强的控球能力,但他们在常规时间无法将球打进球门。加时赛也是如此,但在点球大战中,守门员迪奥戈·科斯托表现出色,他扑出了3次射门。葡萄牙在前四场比赛中创造的xG值为7.73,而xGA值为3.40。
法国队也是本届世界杯的热门球队之一,但我们不能说他们表现得很好。在小组中,法国队只有1胜2平。在16强赛中,法国队对阵比利时队,他们以1:0获胜,但唯一的一个进球是乌龙球。法国队虽然拥有姆巴佩,但他们的净胜率仅为1.06。法国队在本届杯赛中打进3球,其中2个是乌龙球,1个是姆巴佩的点球。4场比赛后,法国队的xG为6.94,xGA为2.63。
我看到这场比赛进入加时赛。是的,法国队是一个小热门,但我不认为球队之间有很大的差距。葡萄牙踢出了更好的足球,如果不算对格鲁吉亚的比赛,他们只丢了一次球。是的,法国也只丢了一次球,但他们的表现令人担忧。这可能是一场五五开的比赛。没有人会急于求成,所以比赛进入了加时赛。
