The round of 16 of this Qatar 2022 World Cup will have an interesting duel between two European teams, none other than Cristiano Ronaldo's team, Portugal against Switzerland. Here we tell you everything you need to know about the head-to-head between the two teams. Remember that this game can be seen in the United States through FuboTV (free trial).
It is a duel that promises to be very interesting. On the one hand, one of the candidates to reach the final stages of the World Cup, the CR7 team, Portugal. The Portuguese had a quiet group stage, qualifying in first place after winning their first two games. The last one was lost to South Korea, but they are still confident that they will be ready for this round of 16.
They will not have a simple game since their rivals will be Switzerland, who had a discreet group stage, winning the first game against Cameroon and then losing to Brazil, but against Serbia they showed a better level that invites illusion. Of course, to beat the tough Portuguese team they will have to put in a great performance.
Head-to-head Portugal and Switzerland
Although it may seem incredible to many, Switzerland is the one that dominates the statistics between the two teams. The Swiss team has won 11 times, while Portugal did so on 9 with 5 draws, for a total of 25 games. They have never met in World Cups; this will be the first time.
