Portugal vs. Ghana Tip

Details:

Portugal is going into the World Cup as a dark-horse candidate to win the trophy but recent events surrounding Cristiano Ronaldo do not go in their favor.

The top star of the team had many difficulties during the season with Manchester United missing most of the games and the main question is how good actually Ronaldo is at the moment?

The fact is that he is already 37 years old and this will probably be his last World Cup.

Portugal barely made it to the World Cup as they lost the final game in the qualifiers at home against Serbia and then had to go into the Playoffs. luckily for their fans, Portugal defeated Turkey and Macedonia to book their ticket for Qatar.

Portugal has won 3 of the last 5 games with 2 losses and are going to Qatar after a 1-0 loss to Spain.

Ghana is known as one of the best African teams and their journey at the 2010 World Cup is still well remembered. They are back at the World Cup after missing the previous tournament in Russia.

Ghana has lost 3 of their last 5 games with two wins including the 1-0 win in their last game over Nicaragua.

Key facts

• This will be the fourth World Cup for Ghana
• This will be the sixth straight World Cup participation for Portugal
• These two played against each other in the 2014 World Cup when Portugal won 2-1

It is not all about Cristiano Ronaldo in the team of Portugal. Many younger players have reached the superstar status and will be able to shine in Qatar. Anyway, Ronaldo is still the boss on the pitch and there is no question that he will be determined to everything it takes for a good tournament. Portugal starts against Ghana who, as every African team, is defensively oriented. Knowing how good Portugal is with the ball, that is probably not the game plan you want to have against them so there will be many goals in this one. Their only game so far has ended with a total of three goals and a similar outcome is expected this time as well. Therefore, I suggest picking this game on over 2.0 goals Asian handicap for a good quote of 1.58.
