Two games away from the EURO 2020 final stage

Portugal didn't make an ideal start in the qualification round for the EURO 2020. They played two home draws on March against the two other candidates of the qualification. Firstly, they played a bore draw with Ukraine and three days later, they played another draw, 1-1 with Serbia. Creativity was missing from F. Santos' team, they actually create a little in these games. Midfielder Joao Mario from Inter and attacker Andre Silva won't perform. Porto's midfielder Danilo Pereira is suspended.

On the other hand, Switzerland's start was quite greater. They register a 2-0 win over Georgia on the road, however, in the second game, they weren't so concentrated and drew 3-3 vs Denmark after a spectacular game in St. Jakob-Park. Home team had a wide lead (3-0) until the 84th minute, but in the last few minutes they collapsed and they conceded three goals from the visitors. Switzerland are still the favorites to qualify from their group, if they don't qualify of course directly, through this Nations League Final Four. Defenders Lichtsteiner (Arsenal) and Klose (Norwich), as well as attackers Embolo (Schalke), Mehmedi (Wolfsburg) and Gavranovic (Dinamo Zagreb) aren't in the squad this time. 

There is no doubt that this is a crucial game for both teams who have a chance to get an early ticket for the EURO 2020 final stage through Nations League. All these years, Portugal prefer a defensive play, while Switzerland won't leave gaps in their back in a game on the road. It's quite difficult to see more than two goals here, all the five home games that Portugal played after the the World Cup 2018 had less than three goals. I expect a low scoring affair for one more time, Under 2.5 goals is my call.
