What the coaches say:
Roberto Martínez, Portugal coach:
"Our performance in the first leg was poor, but it was against a strong team in Denmark that played well. They are aggressive and press high up the pitch. The second game is at home, because we finished first in the group, and we need to re-evaluate. The stadium is sold out, and these are the games we enjoy and are proud to play in."
Brian Riemer, Denmark coach:
"There is a limit to what you can change in 72 hours. We are facing one of the biggest national names in European football, and I still consider them favourites. But we have a good starting point with the one-goal advantage, and we believe in ourselves. We have the plan prepared. It's important that we're mentally ready when the whistle blows. We can't allow Portugal the opportunity to get their machine going."
Statistics:
Both teams have won the European championships once. Denmark triumphed in 1992, while Portugal took the title in 2016.
Denmark and Portugal have faced each other 16 times in history. The Danish win in Parken on Thursday was the fourth Danish victory. Twice it has ended in a draw, while Portugal have been victorious 10 times.
The last meeting between the two nations in Portugal was back in 2015 in Braga where Portugal took a 1-0 win thanks to a goal by João Moutinho.
The last match in Lisbon was in 2008 - at José Alvalade, which also forms the setting for tonight's match when Denmark turned a 1-2 deficit into a famous 3-2 win.
After the first match in the Park, Denmark had an xG of 2.78 – the highest among all nations in the first quarter-final in the Nations League. Portugal finished with an xG of 0.51.
Portugal secured the biggest win between the two nations in May 1971, when they won 5-0 over Denmark in Porto. Among the goalscorers was Portugal legend and 1965 Ballon d'Or winner Eusébio, who netted twice. Among others, the Danish team included a young Morten Olsen and Finn Laudrup.
The leading goalscorer in the head-to-head matches is Nicklas Bendtner, who scored six of his total of 30 goals for the national team against Portugal. Bendtner faced Portugal seven times in his career and scored in the first five meetings between them. In comparison, Cristiano Ronaldo has only scored three goals in the eight games he has played against Denmark so far.
The match referee is Slavko Vinčić. The 45-year-old Slovenian has been a FIFA referee since 2010 and was in charge of the Europa League final in 2022, where Eintracht Frankfurt with Jesper Lindstrom defeated Rangers FC.
