The Iberians' performances in attack in the last two international matches were crucial for the good results. On the one hand, a 5-0 win against Armenia and three goals before halftime. Portugal offensive dominance was also evident against Hungary both previous games resulted in more than two goals in the first half alone. While a Portugal victory seems as certain it looks like the newly crowned Nations League winners will ultimately secure a comfortable victory scoring once again more tham two goals. Meanwhile, in 5 of the Irish's last 6 away defeats, only the home team scored goals. Ireland conceded the first goal in 9 of the 12 matches under Heimir Hallgrimsson.
