While, Portugal will be without a few key men missing out through injuries and personal reasons, Poland do not have any such concerns. Here's all match information on Poland vs Portugal game including live telecast, free live streaming, match timings, venue details and so on.

Portugal will likely to go in with a 4-3-3 formation with both Andre and Bernardo Silva likely leading the attack. Manchester City’s Bernardo Silva has grown into a prolific wide player over the course of a year and possess good attacking skills. His ability to cut inside and take up good positions makes him a real threat in front of goal. Andre Silva has put his struggles at AC Milan behind him as he is making waves at Sevilla on loan. He will be keen to follow up his bright form with the club at international level especially in the absence of Goncalo Guedes.
Robert Lewandowski will play his 100th game for Poland against Portugal as he enters Polish football’s hall of fame. Lewa is his country’s leading goal scorer with 54 goals and he along with his teammates have the chance of putting behind the disappointments of a poor World Cup behind them under a new regime. Krzysztof Piatek is the most talked about striker currently in Europe, and he can punish Portugal with kind of form he has shown for Genoa.
Both the countries have played out turgid draws in the opening games of the Nations League and will now look to be a bit more open in their game. In terms of finishers, Poland have the edge while Portugal have an experienced backline lead by Pepe. The winner of the game will take a giant step towards topping the group.
