Thu Mar 20 19:00:00 UTC 2025: ## Portugal Aim for Nations League Glory Against Denmark
**Lisbon, Portugal –** Portugal’s national team is set to face Denmark in the UEFA Nations League quarterfinals, aiming to reach the final for the first time since 2019. Ranked sixth in the FIFA world rankings, Portugal boasts a strong squad and enters the match as favorites, having not lost to Denmark since 2011. However, a strong performance will be crucial to overcome Denmark and then potentially navigate past either Italy or Germany, and finally France or Spain in a potential final.
A likely starting lineup for Portugal features Diogo Costa in goal, Diogo Dalot at right-back, and a central defensive partnership of Antonio Silva and Ruben Dias. Nuno Mendes will occupy the left-back position. The midfield is expected to consist of Vitinha, Bruno Fernandes, and Joao Neves, while the attack will see Cristiano Ronaldo leading the line, flanked by Pedro Neto and Rafael Leao.
While Portugal is considered the favorite, the match promises to be a challenging test for the team, demanding a complete effort to secure a place in the final.
