Portugal Euro 2008 Betting
Portugal played fourteen qualifying matches in order to earn their place at Euro 2008, and was only beaten once by Group winners, Poland. They won seven of these matches, but had more than their fair share of draw’s, six in all and became somewhat of a draw specialist team. However they have done extremely well in both of the last two major soccer events, finishing runners up to Greece in Euro 2004 and in fourth place in the 2006 World Cup in Germany. Much of this success has been accredited to coach Scolari, but Portugal has several great players, including, arguably the World’s best in Christiano Ronaldo. They will be very definitely a danger here and its little wonder that they start as one of the favourites.

Portugal Coach
He is certainly one of the great coaches in the world today. His track record is second to none, having guided the Brazilians to the World Cup in 2002, Portugal to Runners-up spot in Euro 2004 and to fourth place in the 2006 World Cup. With that record it will be a major surprise if his side do not do well here.Portugal Best Betting Tip
Portugal have undoubtedly a great chance, under the profound guidance of Scolari, they might be worth a bet to go one better than in 2004 and win the Tournament. They are around 8/1 to achieve this.
