Georgia – Portugal Prediction

Giorgi Mamardashvili is the main star of the Georgian side. He made 11 saves in the second round, which became the best UEFA Euro result since 2012 (Shay Given made 11 saves for the Republic of Ireland back then). This is why the opponents of Georgia haven’t been able to win with at least an over 2-goal lead in 6 out of the last 8 official games. 

Portugal look very strong. However, they’ve already secured the top spot in the group. They have no motivation in this game. Many reserve players are likely to participate in this match.

Georgia, on the other hand, will have all key players on the pitch. This is the decisive game for Georgia. They’re unlikely to suffer a huge defeat.

Our prediction is Georgia +1.5 at 4/5 .
