Ireland vs Portugal prediction (2:45 a.m. November 14). Construction Newspaper predicts the results of the 2026 World Cup qualifying round in Europe.

The match between Ireland and Portugal in Group F of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers in Europe will take place at 2:45 a.m. on November 14.

Ireland vs Portugal result prediction: 0-2

Will Portugal get 3 points on Ireland's field?

Ireland have not participated in the World Cup since 2006. However, they now have the opportunity to return to the biggest football festival on the planet after many years of waiting.

Most recently, this team had a close 1-0 victory over Armenia, thereby rising to 3rd place on the rankings with 4 points, 1 point behind 2nd place - the position with a ticket to the play-off.

But this is not an easy task because Ireland has Portugal and Hungary in front of them. Both of these teams are rated much higher than the team of coach Heimir Hallgrimsson.

In addition, during his 16 months in charge, coach Heimir Hallgrimsson has only brought Ireland 4 victories. However, when playing at home, Ireland is unbeaten in the last 5 matches.

On the other side, Portugal is still playing in form with consecutive wins and they are currently leading Group F with 10 points after 4 matches. With what is happening, Roberto Martinez and his team only need to win one more match to get a ticket to the 2026 World Cup.

Under coach Roberto Martinez, Portugal are playing with effective control and attack. Besides, they are also a united and disciplined team.

But in the trip to Ireland, Portugal will not have the services of two important stars, Pedro Neto and Pedro Goncalves, due to injury. However, with the remaining names, they are still strong enough to overwhelm the home team.

On the other hand, Ireland will be without in-form striker Evan Ferguson. In addition, Sammie Szmodics, Mark Sykes and Callum O'Dowda are also out due to injury.

With what is happening, although they usually play well at home, Ireland will probably have a hard time creating a surprise for Portugal. If they are not careful, they could even suffer a heavy defeat against Ronaldo and his teammates.

Expected lineup Ireland vs Portugal

Ireland (3-4-2-1): Kelleher; O'Brien, Collins, O'Shea; Coleman, Cullen, Taylor, Johnston; Ebosele, Azaz; Parrott

Portugal (4-3-3): Costa; Cancelo, Dias, Inacio, Mendes; Fernandes, Neves, Vitinha; Bernardo, Ronaldo, Leao
