Preview:
Portugal come into this after a 3-2 opening day win in group H over Ghana in their previous clash on Thursday.
Ronaldo, Felix and Leao scored for A Seleção while Ayew and Bukari found the net for the Ghana side.
With that strike, Ronaldo became the first man to score in 5 World Cup finals and got his campaign off to the start required. Bruno Fernandes got 2 assists as well.
However, Portugal must improve on their defensive front as they were opened quite easily by Ghana.
On the other hand, Uruguay played out a goalless draw vs South Korea in their opening clash on Thursday.
Valverde came closest for La Celeste when he hit the post late in the 2nd half. Uruguay lacked the pace in the centre of the park and will be tested against Portugal’s form players.
This is expected to be a cracker with Portugal having revenge on their mind after Uruguay dumped them out of the 2018 WC in the Round of 16.
Both sides last met in the 2018 WC as mentioned above, where Uruguay won 2-1 through Cavani’s brace.

Portugal needs a win to get into the Round of 16 and hope to complete that before heading into final group match.
Uruguay has the chance to get a win as well with their side having beaten Portugal last time out.
This is expected to be a teasing and tantalizing affair between the two. Battle between the two sides’ attacking units makes for a good watch.
