This week brings another set of group games for the 2022 FIFA World Cup, with Uruguay facing Portugal in a Group H matchup at the Lusail Stadium on Monday. This year, Portugal has a star-studded team at their disposal and is currently leading their FIFA World Cup group.
In their previous match, the Iberian giants edged Ghana to a crucial 3-2 victory and will attempt to up the ante in this second encounter. On the other hand, Uruguay is in desperate need of a boost after a disappointing start to its World Cup campaign. The South American team, which played South Korea to a 0-0 draw last week, will need to play well in this game.

Portugal vs Uruguay Prediction :
Portugal is currently in the midst of a second golden generation, so they will need to make the most of their talent. With his goal against Ghana, Cristiano Ronaldo will hope to regain his confidence ahead of a potentially exhausting tournament schedule.
In the upcoming match, Uruguay, who have previously afflicted European opponents, are likely to employ yet another low block. With a low-scoring draw on Monday, the South Americans, who are dangerous on the counter, may be able to keep Portugal at bay.
Prediction: Portugal 1-1 Uruguay
Portugal vs Uruguay Head to Head :
In terms of their head-to-head record, Portugal and Uruguay are on an even footing. Out of the three games they’ve played, each team has won one. Portugal was knocked out of the World Cup in the previous meeting between the two teams, which took place in Russia in 2018 and ended in a 2-1 Uruguay victory. Despite losing their previous match against France, Uruguay has won four of their last five FIFA World Cup matches against European nations.
In all competitions, Portugal has only lost one of their last nine matches against South American opponents, with their most recent victory coming in 2014 against Argentina. Portugal will be aiming to win their first two FIFA World Cup group games for only the third time in their history. The team reached the semifinals on two previous occasions, in 1966 and 2006.
