Georgia head into the final game of Euro 2024 Group F knowing that only a victory will be enough to see them progress to the knockout stage.

They face a Portugal side who have already secured qualification after two victories in their opening two games against Turkiye and Czechia respectively.

Here's how the Georgia and Portugal squads are shaping up ahead of the Group F decider from the Arena AufSchalke in Gelsenkirchen.

.

After the point gained against Czechia, it is unlikely many if any changes will be made to the starting XI for Georgia. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia hasn't found top form yet, but his nation will be hoping for a moment or two of magic from the Napoli winger.

Portugal Team News

With qualification secured, it is likely Robert Martinez will make changes to his starting line-up for this one.

A definite absentee is Rafael Leao who is suspended after collecting yellow cards in consecutive games.

Pepe may be rested for Antonio Silva at the back.

It has already been confirmed that Cristiano Ronaldo will start, so Goncalo Ramos will have to wait for his opportunity again. Pedro Neto may be selected to replace Leao, while Vitinha may replace Joao Palhinha due to concerns over suspension for the Fulham man.

Joao Felix is another option on the wing, though Diogo Jota is a doubt due to fitness issues.

Georgia vs Portugal lineups

Georgia (3-4-2-1): Mamardashvili; Kverkveliya, Kashia, Dvali; Kakabadze, Mekvabishvili, Kochorashvili, Tsitaishvili; Davitashvili, Kvaratskhelia; Mikautadze.
