Hungary vs Portugal: Dream11 prediction, head to head, key players, kick off time in India

Bengaluru, June 14: The defending champions Portugal will open their Euro 2020 campaign with a clash against Hungary in Budapest on Tuesday (June 15) in the group of death.

Portugal have been handed the toughest possible draw in their pursuit of retaining the European championship and definitely need a good start against the relatively weakened opponents.

Hungary, however, despite their limitations, remain a very capable side, especially defensively and they could be extremely motivated in front of an ecstatic home crowd to cause an upset in Group F which also includes the last two World Cup winners France and Germany.

Key Players to Watch Out in Hungary vs Portugal

Hungary: With star players Dominik Szoboszlai and Zsolt Kalmar out of the tournament, the responsibility of the team falls on their captain, Adam Szalai. Other than him, Peter Gulacsi and Attila Szalai too will have to play a key role in the game as the duo have the experience of top-level European football.

Portugal: Portugal's team looks as strong as it has been for a long time. However, the main focus could again be on Cristiano Ronaldo. Apart from him, Bruno Fernandes will also have lots to say after his record-breaking 18 months with Manchester United.

Hungary vs Portugal Dream11 Prediction

This game is likely to be an attack versus defence encounter. Portugal will be desperate to win the tie and with so many players missing, the home side will definitely sit back to hit on the counter. Portugal are clear favourites to win it but it is unlikely to be a goal-fest.
