Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One — Total goals: Over 2.5 — 2.10
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two — 2nd result: Portugal to win — 2.01
Although the odds are against the game ending with over 2.5 goals, three of Portugal’s last four matches ended with over 2.5 goals. Portugal smashed 6-1 Switzerland in the round of 16 on Tuesday night.
Portugal have won in the second half in two of their last three matches. They outclassed Switzerland in both halves and are likely to finish off the kind of chances Spain lavished against Morocco in the round of 16.
Morocco stunned the football world when they went against all odds to knock out Spain from the Qatar World Cup on penalties after the regular time and extra time ended in a goalless draw.
The African side will look to repeat a similar shock when they come up against in-form

Portugal:
Portugal are gradually becoming one of the teams to watch closely in the knockout stage of the World Cup. They smashed Switzerland 6-1 in the round of 16.
They head into the quarter-final as the favourites and should they beat Morocco this weekend, Portugal would be two games away from winning the trophy. That’s massive.
Back Gonzalo Ramos to score first in the game. Ramos scored a hat-trick as Portugal beat Switzerland 6-1. Fernando Santos is likely to retain him in the starting lineup, hence boosting his chances of scoring first again when Morocco and Portugal lock horns.
Back Portugal to go through to the next round by beating Morocco either in regular time, extra time, or on penalties.
