Portugal vs France Euro 2020 time, date, channel
The Portugal vs France Euro 2020 game starts today (Wednesday, June 23) at 8 p.m. BST / 3 p.m. ET / 12 p.m. PT. In the U.S., it’s available on ESPN. In the U.K., you can watch on BBC iPlayer. Full channel details below.
The Portugal vs France live stream is starting soon, and it could be one of the closest games of the Euro 2020 tournament so far — you won’t want to miss this Group F match.
France currently sit top of the group and are already guaranteed to qualify for the next round, but are coming off a disappointing 1-1 draw with Hungary. Portugal, on the other hand, are licking their wounds after being thoroughly outclassed by Germany in a 2-4 demolition. A draw would see Portugal also progress to the next round, but they will desperately want a win to pick up some momentum ahead of the Ro16.
There’s still plenty to play for in Group F as both Portugal and France can still top the group, but the final standing will be highly dependent on the result in the concurrent Germany vs Hungary match.
France, who are the reigning World Champions, will go into this game as the favorites and with a wealth of attacking talent. But coach Didier Deschamps has made three more defensive changes for this game, bringing in Lucas Hernandez and Jules Koundé at full back and Corentin Tolisso in midfield.
Portugal coach Fernando Santos has also made changes, with midfielders João Moutinho and Renato Sanches replacing Bruno Fernandes and William Carvahlo. Here’s how they line up:
Portugal: Patricio; Semedo, Pepe, Dias, Guerreiro; Moutinho, Danilo, Sanches; Silva, Ronaldo, Jota
France: Lloris; Koundé, Varane, Kimpembe, Hernandez; Kanté, Pogba; Tolisso, Griezmann, Mbappe; Benzema
Portugal vs France kicks off today (Wednesday, June 23) at 8 p.m. BST (3 p.m. ET / 12 p.m. PT). The best part? You can watch it anywhere in the world, for free.
