How to watch today's Portugal vs Poland Nations League game: Live stream, TV channel, and start time

Portugal will host Poland in Porto on Friday for the fifth matchday of the UEFA Nations League.

Despite Portugal's unbeaten run in this season's tournament ending last month, they remain in a strong position at the top of Group A1. The hosts missed several chances in the 0-0 stalemate with Scotland at Hampden Park on matchday four.

However, their lead in the group was preserved as Croatia squandered a two-goal lead against Poland, allowing Portugal to keep a three-point cushion.

Michal Probierz’s Poland has struggled to keep a clean sheet in their last nine outings, though they have shown signs of renewed competitiveness under his guidance.

After a dismal Euro 2024 qualifying campaign, where they finished behind Albania and Czechia and managed only a single point in two matches with Moldova, Poland narrowly progressed on penalties against Wales following Probierz's appointment.

Team news & squads

Portugal team news

Portugal are facing a centre-back dilemma heading into this international break, with Ruben Dias and Goncalo Inacio both sidelined due to injury.

Antonio Silva, despite limited game time at Benfica, emerges as the most experienced option in central defence and is expected to start, as it would be a bold decision for head coach Roberto Martinez to pair uncapped Tiago Djalo and Tomas Araujo together at the back.

In attack, Portugal will be without Diogo Jota and Goncalo Ramos, while key midfielders Ruben Neves, Matheus Nunes, and Pedro Goncalves are also unavailable for selection.

Portugal possible XI: Diogo Costa; Dalot, Antonio Silva, Araujo, Nuno Mendes; Bruno Fernandes, Joao Neves, Bernardo; Neto, Ronaldo, Leao.

Poland team news

On the other hand, Poland are significantly weakened by the late withdrawal of their star forward Robert Lewandowski, who has pulled out due to a lower back injury. With Arkadiusz Milik still out of the picture, Karol Swiderski and Krzysztof Piatek are likely to compete for the starting striker role, unless head coach Probierz opts for a two-striker formation.

Midfielders Jakub Piotrowski and Kacper Kozlowski are also missing for Poland, while Pawel Dawidowicz of Verona remains unavailable after being forced off with an injury in last month’s match against Croatia.

Poland possible XI: Bulka; Frankowski, Piatkowski, Bednarek, Kiwior, Zalewski; S Szymanski, Moder, Zielinski; Swiderski, Piatek.
