On Sunday night, Portugal will look to continue their recent excellent record in European Championships qualifying when they host Iceland at the Estadio Jose Alvalade.
The Selecao have a perfect record in Group J of qualifying for Euro2024. They have scored an incredible 34 goals and conceded just two in nine qualifiers.
Roberto Martinez’s team has kept clean sheets in eight of their last nine qualifiers while also scoring at least two goals in seven of their nine wins in qualifying.
Portugal has an excellent recent home record in qualifying for the European Championships, as they are unbeaten in 11 home games while also recording nine victories in the run.
The Selecao has been lethal in front of goal in recent home qualifiers, having scored at least two goals in each of their last six matches.
Due to the group's circumstances, despite being fourth-place in the group, the Nordic nation could still qualify for Euro2024 via the play-offs.
However, their recent international form has been poor, as they have won just two of their last seven games, which have all come in qualifying for Euro2024. A record of three wins from their nine games in Group J is an underwhelming one.
Their recent qualifiers have been high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in nine of their previous 12 games.
Iceland have been poor on their travels in European Championships qualifiers, losing four of their previous five matches. One of the main factors in their recent away results in qualifying is that they have conceded at least two goals in four of their last five matches.
