Portugal vs Denmark: Preview, predictions and lineups | OneFootball

Portugal enter Sunday's UEFA Nations League quarter-final second leg aiming to overturn a one-goal deficit against Denmark.

The inaugural competition winners were beaten 1-0 by Denmark during Thursday's first leg in Copenhagen, Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund scoring the only goal of the game before proceeding to celebrate in Cristiano Ronaldo fashion.

Portugal were well beaten during their trip to Scandinavia and Denmark will be frustrated that they don't enter the second leg with a larger cushion having produced 23 shots and 2.78 expected goals at Parken.

The last three meetings between the sides have been decided by a single goal but Portugal will need more than that if they hope to qualify for the semi-finals within regulation time. Extra-time and penalties are on standby if required.

Here is 90min's guide to the second leg.

Roberto Martinez will be tempted to make alterations following Thursday's defeat but the Spaniard is unlikely to make sweeping changes having fielded an incredibly strong starting lineup during the first leg.

Ronaldo - international football's top goalscorer - will continue to lead the line in front of former Man Utd clubmate Bruno Fernandes, while Pedro Neto and Rafael Leao are expected to start again on the wings.

There could be one change in defence, with Renato Veiga perhaps making way for Goncalo Inacio or Antonio Silva in the heart of the backline.

Portugal predicted lineup vs Denmark (4-2-3-1): Costa; Dalot, Dias, Inacio, Mendes; Vitinha, J. Neves; Neto, Fernandes, Leao; Ronaldo.

Man Utd midfielder Christian Eriksen missed a spot kick during the first leg but will still prove key if Denmark are to progress on Sunday. Clubmate Hojlund may have done enough to earn a start ahead of Thursday night debutant Mika Biereth.

Brentford creator Mikkel Damsgaard missed the first leg after catching the flu and Brian Riemer will be hopeful of welcoming the assist king back to the fold.

Patrick Dorgu, Man Utd's winter signing, was only used from the bench in first leg and is unlikely to displace Wolfsburg's Joakim Maehle at left-back.

Denmark predicted lineup vs Portugal (4-2-3-1): Schmeichel; Kristensen, Andersen, Vestergaard, Maehle; Hjulmand, Norgaard; Isaksen, Eriksen, Skov Olsen; Hojlund.

Portugal vs Denmark score prediction

Portugal will still be favourites to progress to the last four and punish Denmark for not making more of their dominant display during the first leg. On home soil, Martinez's side are a different proposition and should secure victory.

Their fearsome forward quartet will be aiming to get more joy against Denmark than they did in Copenhagen, and Riemer's side will find it difficult to keep Portugal at bay for another 90 minutes - or potentially more - on Sunday.
