Get Portugal vs Czechia prediction and SGP for 6-18, plus Euro 2024 best bets and same-game parlay analysis.
Czechia's recent track record looks good on paper, but they haven't faced anywhere near as stiff a test as Portugal, who our Euro 2024 picks are backing to give the underdogs a rude awakening on Monday.Cristiano Ronaldo looks to lift his second European Championship trophy in what will likely be his final appearance as he leads Portugal into their opening Euro 2024 match with Czechia.
So, the Portuguese players have to be licking their chops in anticipation of this fixture. A Selecao is stacked with talent at every level, starting with the likes of Ronaldo and Rafael Leao in attack. Add in the passing ability of Bruno Fernandes and Bernardo Silva in midfield, and you have a team that can pick apart the best of defenses — and put lesser ones to the sword.
Portugal has won by multiple goals in seven of their last 10 matches, with the only exceptions being defeats to Croatia and Slovenia and a narrow win over Slovakia. They can attack in many ways from multiple angles, and they’re going to have opportunities to punish Czechia’s 3-4-2-1 setup. Look for them to win this one by two or more. At age 39, Ronaldo will make history when he steps on the pitch as the first player to ever participate in six European Championships.
But despite having only the 17th-most touches per match of any Portuguese player in qualifying, he scored 10 goals in nine starts and attempted 46 shots — including an unheard of 12 shots in 66 minutes against Liechtenstein.
