France are without Adrien Rabiot after receiving his second yellow card against Belgium; Eduardo Camavinga will take his place.

Portugal

Portugal is a strong contender in the UEFA Nations League and boasts extensive experience. They first appeared at 1966 World Cup where they finished third. Luis Figo led his first golden generation team that reached multiple European Championship semi-finals as well as World Cup finals during this period, helping establish Portugal as an influential global force.

Cristiano Ronaldo will attempt to add another chapter to his remarkable career when he attempts to score his 900th goal for Portugal at Al Nassr. With such success and this friendly as an opportunity, Ronaldo may well reach the milestone soon – in the company of many other players from Portugal’s rich soccer heritage.

Costa

Portugal are among those that will face tough competition as they begin group play in what many consider one of the toughest groups. Cristiano Ronaldo may also aim to add another milestone to his illustrious career by scoring over 900 goals!

France are coming off of an impressive 2-1 victory against Belgium in Brussels and will be without Kylian Mbappe for their next match, so Didier Deschamps may opt to start Eduardo Camavinga of Paris Saint-Germain instead. Additionally, Deschamps may choose Randal Kolo Muani with Antoine Griezmann possibly being sent straight back onto the bench due to his one-match ban.

Roberto Martinez faces an injury crisis at centre back with Ruben Dias (Manchester City) and Goncalo Inacio (Sporting Lisbon) both sidelined, set to be replaced by Joao Palhinha from Sporting.

Cancelo

Joao Cancelo will hope to keep his right back spot for Portugal after they demonstrated greater versatility with attack options beyond Cristiano Ronaldo since returning from a shoulder injury. Cristiano Ronaldo had made an impactful return since returning as Real Madrid star.

Mbappe presents Portugal with a threat, testing Costa with a powerful shot and forcing him to bravely block it outside his area. Unfortunately, Theo Hernandez misses an obvious scoring opportunity by shooting wide.

Penalties For Failed Applications will apply

Dias

Roberto Martinez will make changes from his team that beat Poland on Friday. Suspended playmaker Bruno Fernandes has left camp, as have Bernardo Silva, Joao Cancelo and Ruben Dias.

Cristiano Ronaldo will look to reach a historic goalmark by scoring in this match – reaching 900! Francisco Conceicao, Joao Felix and Rafael Leao will provide him with plenty of support up front.

France are reigning Champions League defending champions and have won three of four games so far in Group A1. A loss to Scotland last week knocked France off top position, though Deschamps may opt to replace Real Madrid midfielder Adrien Rabiot with either Marseille’s Mathieu Flamini or Al Ittihad’s N’Golo Kante as options in midfield; Arsenal captain William Saliba may lead them while Aurelien Tchamoueni and Christopher Nkunku may feature.

Pepe

Pepe is an intimidating centre back who has been an essential member of Portugal’s national team since 2007. Furthermore, he plays an instrumental role in Real Madrid’s defensive unit.

At Euro 2016, he won best defender, but since has suffered injuries. Now he hopes that he’ll be fit enough to face France and show that his issues with injury are in the past.

Jota Silva could be an attractive left-back option for Portugal. His 7.96 rating this season shows how impressive he has been for Sporting Lisbon and could secure himself a seat on the plane to Poland. As well as set piece threats like Silva, Cancelo and Guerreiro’s defensive partnership will also play a critical role against France, offering excellent defenders while providing strong attacking combinations.

Mendes

Mendes may miss Portugal due to a sprained ankle, leaving the centre-defensive spot unfilled and forcing Lucas Beraldo back into starting lineup.

Bruno Fernandes of Manchester United will also miss out, after being dismissed from Portugal’s squad after receiving two bookings against Poland in their 5-1 thrashing. That will open up opportunities for players such as Joao Cancelo and Tomas Araujo to keep their places while Vitinha should step into fill the vacant midfield position left by Bernardo Silva.

Arsenal’s William Saliba and Liverpool’s Ibrahima Konate could combine in central defence for France while Juventus’ Benjamin Pavard could replace Mike Maignan as an early starter. N’Golo Kante will lead them as they aim to avenge their shocking loss to Israel.

Vitinha

Portugal national football team plays in an iconic red jersey with green trim that represents their flag’s colors. Led by Cristiano Ronaldo – an icon on both field and off – who has set himself an ambitious goal to become the first ever player ever to reach 1000 career goals – this team looks set for victory!

Portugal have made an impressive start in their UEFA Nations League campaign despite not qualifying for European Championships, having defeated Poland and Croatia without conceding a goal so far and tied for first in Group F with six wins out of seven matches so far – having defeated Poland and Croatia and tied with Sporting Lisbon center back Goncalo Inacio is injured; with both players unavailable Joao Felix, Vitinha, and Joao Micale now starting roles with Joao Micale joining as midfielder.

Palhinha

Defending World Cup champions France will approach this match with urgency. Drawn into a group alongside Poland, Croatia and Scotland, France must win its opening two matches to remain in contention for first place.

Bayern Munich midfielder Joao Palhinha is close to recovering from a groin injury, though he will not be available for their Nations League match against Germany on January 22. When fit again he’ll likely compete with Leon Goretzka for starting positions when making his comeback.

Palhinha was active defensively against Palace, making five tackles (three won), five clearances, and creating one chance with his usual tenacity in midfield. He should be ready for Croatia’s visit next weekend.

B. Silva

Portugal entered the UEFA Nations League with high expectations, yet an underwhelming start saw them slip behind in their group. Italy, Malta and Sweden defeated them during their initial two games while losing badly against Sweden was a significant setback; nevertheless they eventually managed to come back and win both remaining matches to qualify for Euro 2012.

After the tournament concluded, many members of Geracao de Ouro (“Golden Generation”) decided to step away from international football; however, Cristiano Ronaldo continued as captain.

This match will be pivotal for both nations as they look to establish momentum in the UEFA Nations League. Portugal hopes to overcome an underwhelming start to their campaign while Poland looks to rebound after their World Cup disappointments.

Fernandes

Portuguese team Cristiano Ronaldo will be eager to get underway with the UEFA Nations League after its return. At 39, Cristiano could notch his 900th international goal against Wales next week; as undisputed leader he outshines both Bernardo Silva and Joao Felix who had once tried their luck at overthrowing him.

Martinez may tinker with the team that won against Georgia and Slovenia, giving Pepe an opportunity to show his fitness after an exhausting last-16 match against Slovenia.

Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes was not included in the squad despite receiving two yellow cards in a 5-1 defeat of Poland, with N’Golo Kante taking up his armband instead. Additionally, Arsenal centre-back William Saliba and Paris Saint Germain’s Aurelien Tchamoueni both missed Scotland’s draw due to injury.
