After only 2 matches, Portugal has won a maximum of 6 points and is at the top of Group F. Obviously, they no longer have much motivation to try their best.
However, the theoretical level between the two teams is quite different. At Euro 2024, Portugal owns the third most expensive squad of the tournament, with a figure of up to 1.05 billion euros.
Meanwhile, Georgia's squad is only worth 161.05 million euros. They are only better than Slovakia, Slovenia, Albania and Romania.
It can be seen that just the reserve squad of Portugal is already superior to the opponent. That is the reason why they are rated higher by experts.
Georgia has been impressive so far at Euro 2024. In the matches against Türkiye (1-3) and the draw with the Czech Republic (1-1), the team used a pressing style of play, putting pressure on their opponents, making them confused.
Striker Georges Mikautadze has two goals to his name. But goalkeeper Marmadashvili is the standout player. After just two games, he has made 16 saves.
But against a seasoned and classy Portugal, Georgia's style of play is unlikely to be effective again.
Despite being certain to top the group, Portugal have a hungry Cristiano Ronaldo. This striker has not scored a goal and certainly will not want to leave the group stage "empty-handed".
