A portuguese selection does today the last training before the duel with Denmark, the League of Nations football, and travels to Braga, city that will receive on Saturday the meeting of the fifth day of Group A4.
Portugal has a session scheduled for 11:30 in Football City, in Oeiras, with the first 15 minutes open to the media.
On Thursday, the medium João Palhinha, with flu, failed training and was the only casualty in the group of 27 players summoned by the selectioner Jorge Jesus.
The Benfica player is thus in doubt for the meeting with the Danes, while the João Cancelo side is certain low due to punishment.
Already at the Braga Municipal Stadium, at 7:45 p.m., Jesus and a player still to appoint will make the preview of Portugal-Denmark in press conference.
The meeting is scheduled for 19:45 Saturday and will have as referee the Slovenian Rade Obrenovic.
With the final rooms secured, the national selection only needs one point to ensure the first place of group A4 and the serial head status in the final rooms.
After this duel, Portugal visits Cardiff on Tuesday to measure forces with Wales at the farewell of the group.
These will be the first games since Cristiano Ronaldo officially left the national team, after 23 years, 234 games and 146 goals.
Only with victories in the first four days, Portugal leads the group with 12 points, followed by Denmark, with six, while Wales and Norway add up to three, and the fight for the second qualifying wave is open.
