With Paulo Bento slated to announce a 23-man squad this Friday for the Portugal National team’s upcoming games against Luxembourg and Israel, Portugal Football are going to take a guess as to who he will call. These two games are the last two World Cup qualifiers for Portugal, as the team looks to capitalize on a run of good form. Both teams are beatable, and as both games are to be played at home, there will be few excuses if Portugal fail to come up with the points. Because of this and of past actions, Bento will likely call a squad with very few surprises. Here’s what we think:
