This fixture looks like an exciting one for a Portugal win outlook. Armenia have not had a qualifying campaign they will look back on fondly, while Portugal have been going about their business well but quietly, and Thursday’s defeat to Ireland will spur them on to bounce back strongly.

The Over 2.5 Goals goals angle also looks strong to us. Portugal are on home turf and need to win to qualify – they will want to make a statement.
