Portugal will meet Turkey on the second matchday of Group F at the BVB stadium in Dortmund on Saturday, June 22.
Turkey and Portugal both began their Euro 2024 campaigns with hard-fought victories on Matchday 1, though each had to work hard to earn their points.
Vincenzo Montella’s Turkey participated in what has been considered the game of the tournament so far, overcoming a tough challenge from Euros debutants Georgia to win 3-1 in Dortmund.
Turkey are aiming to win their first two games in a major tournament (World Cup/Euros) for the first time in their history.
This would be a significant achievement and a testament to the progress they have made under Montella’s guidance.
Portugal left it late against the Czech Republic on Matchday 1, with substitute Francisco Conceição scoring a stoppage-time winner to secure a 2-1 victory.
Martinez’s team came back from a goal down after Lukás Provod gave the Czechs the lead.
An own goal by Robin Hranác levelled the score, and Conceição clinched the win in the 92nd minute following an assist from fellow substitute Pedro Neto.
Both teams will be looking to build on their opening wins as they proceed in the tournament, with Turkey eyeing a historic milestone and Portugal aiming to continue their strong start.
