[Group A] Portugal - Turkey
The toughest game in the group for us, IMO. Turkey has a very good team from the midfield onwards (Nihat, Tuncay, Emre, Arda Turan, Altintop, Mehmet Aurélio...), although the defence hasn't got any well known player.
I have to say for me at this moment Portugal is still a bit of an unknown quantity, it will all depend on how that midfield gels together. We're also lacking a decent forward.
The more than likely portuguese starting 11: Ricardo; Bosingwa, Pepe, Ricardo Carvalho, Paulo Ferreira; Petit, João Moutinho, Deco; Cristiano Ronaldo, Simão, Nuno Gomes.
Meanwhile the 2nd goalkeeper, Quim, has been injured, and will be replaced by a new player. Apparently it'll be Nuno Espírito Santo from Porto.
I'm guessing a 1-1 draw on this as well.
