Will Liverpool forward start in Portugal vs. France Euro 2024 Quarterfinal? 

Portugal has had some semi-blockbuster performances to date in the UEFA Euro Championship. Now, speculations regarding Diogo Jota appearing in Portugal versus France are raising a lot of eyebrows. Will the Liverpool star start alongside CR7 in the lineup?

Portugal lineup against France: Is Diogo Jota in there?

Even after qualifying for the quarter-finals, the defeat against Georgia remains like a wound. The former Real Madrid superstar missed a penalty against Slovenia in their last time.

Apart from CR7, Diogo Jota or Bernardo, a lot of players in Portugal have had mixed reactions from fans. That’s why, before they face France, Roberto Martinez will be carefully inspecting his team alongside the team physio.

Ronaldo’s performance made a lot of us think that he might lose his spot in the next match. This has also raised concerns about Liverpool forward Diogo Jota starting in Portugal vs France.

As per reports that we have, the Red Winger will stay as a potential reserve along with Francisco Conceicao. The team is a powerhouse of talents, and we are waiting for a good clash.

The Portugal squad will most probably have Palhinla and Vitinha as midfielders, while Rafael Leao and Bernardo Silva are expected to stay in the frontline of attack.

After the second yellow card Rabiot got, France must make a change. Didier Deschamps will have to replace him. Since Portugal has kept Diego Jota as a reserve, we might see the LFC Star step in.

Since 1978, the duo have met 14 times and Portugal has managed to lose in 11 of them. 2021 saw both these giants getting knocked out before even reaching the last 16.

This semifinal will be an exciting one for fans from France and Portugal. The Liverpool forward might put up a promising performance if he gets a chance to step in.
