The Portuguese side takes the field with a 100% record in the competition and needs just one win to book an early place in the quarterfinals.

Portugal: Top of the group with a perfect record and controversy involving Cristiano Ronaldo

Despite the excellent results under Jorge Jesus, Portugal is experiencing a tense atmosphere off the pitch. Captain Cristiano Ronaldo, 41, left the national team camp after disagreements with the coach. The star left Copenhagen last Wednesday on his private jet bound for Madrid and, this Sunday, travels directly to Riyadh to rejoin Al Nassr, managed by Ange Postecoglou, which plays next Friday against Bruno Lage’s Al Diriyah.

On the field, Jorge Jesus is expected to keep the tactical structure that has been working in the tournament, relying on Gonçalo Ramos as the attacking focal point alongside João Félix and Pedro Neto.

Probable Lineup

Norway: Pressure to win and a defensive absence

The Norwegian national team won only in the opening round and is coming off a painful defeat to Wales. With warning bells ringing in the fight for a knockout-stage spot, the visitors depend on Martin Ødegaard’s creativity and Erling Haaland’s goalscoring instinct up front.

In defense, the Norwegian coach has one confirmed absence: center-back Torbjørn Heggem is suspended after being sent off in the last match and will be replaced by Leo Østigård.
