Belgium started the Euro 2020 tournament with doubts over Kevin de Bruyne and Eden Hazard.

Belgium Coach Roberto Martínez said: “We are motivated. There’s so much excitement and energy amongst the players. Portugal are a team that adapt quickly.”

The Wolves full-back has a low possibility of being fit in time for tonight’s match.

Also, Nuno Mendes remains an injury doubt for Portugal.

Portugal Coach Fernando Santos said: “Belgium score goals and barely struggle. There have top who are more influential, but they won’t try to man-mark. This is like a final; it’s for winning, not for fun. We know they are good opponents. I am convinced that we will be better.”
