Although they boast of an advantage over the Portuguese having won their only meeting back in 1986, nevertheless the loss against the West Asians will definitely put them under immense pressure to perform in this outing and given the impressive start of their contestant, they will have it all to do to surmount BetKing’s odds of (6.20) to claim the maximum points.
