THE PREDICTION

The home team come into this on the back of a 5-0 thrashing at the hands of United States in their most recent outing in mid-January. That means New Zealand have now suffered back-to-back defeats by an aggregate score of 9-0 to the Americana and the Kiwi’s are winless in their last five matches with just three victories in their last 23 matches. They now face a Portugal side that, under the management of Francisco Neto, are currently ranked 22nd in the world, which is their highest ever FIFA ranking. Portugal are favourites for this one.
