SEVILLE, Spain – Belgium and Portugal will meet for the first time in major tournament history in the Round of 16 on Saturday. Belgium went 3-0 in the group stage and will be the betting favorite against Portugal who went 1-1-1 in the group stage.
Which Team Will Move On?
There’s always a chance that Portugal sees Cristiano Ronaldo have one of those days where he’ll score a handful of goals, but online sportsbooks seem to think it’s unlikely as they have Belgium listed with shorter odds.
Belgium vs Portugal Betting Odds
- Belgium +145
- Portugal +210
Belgium went undefeated in the group stage and is entering the Round of 16 with all the confidence in the world. Meanwhile, Portugal has struggled a bit with only a 1-goal advantage on their opponents, even with three goals from penalties including two against France.
Belgium is largely considered the better team and even as one of the best in the tournament. An upset wouldn’t be groundbreaking, but surprising for sure. Anyone betting on the Euros should be careful if thinking about fading Belgium in this spot.

Romelu Lukaku Anytime Goal Scorer
Romelu Lukaku has been the primary scoring option for Belgium thus far in the tournament. He has three of the team’s seven goals this tournament between the first three games. Lukaku has +150 odds as an anytime goalscorer in this match.
Belgium Team Total Over 1.5
Sports betting sites also have set Belgium’s goal total at 1.5 with the Over having +150 odds. All three of Belgium’s group stage games saw the team score two or more goals, meaning there is likely a better chance of this happening than the odds would suggest. Portugal has also allowed at least two goals in two of their three previous games.
Belgium To Win By Shutout
Finally, Belgium to win in a shutout has odds of +300. Two of Belgium’s wins were shutouts while Portugal is coming off of a game where their only goals were penalties. Given the odds, it may be worth the risk.
