Analysis of all Portuguese matches:

Qualifying situation and core fighting spirit: As the fifth-ranked team in the world, Portugal currently leads Group F with 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, with 10 points. If you win this game, you can secure the first place in the group and directly advance to the World Cup. A draw will depend on the results of Hungary and Ireland, and your fighting spirit is full. The team had won consecutive games against Armenia, Hungary, and Ireland in the first three rounds to show its strength. However, in the past two rounds, it had 1 draw and 1 loss (2-2 draw with Hungary and 0-2 loss with Ireland). The qualifying situation has changed from a sure win to a "last-ditch effort" and it is eager to use victory to regain morale.

Offensive and defensive performance and lineup characteristics: Offensive end: Scored 21 goals in the past 10 official games, averaging 2.1 goals per game, and contributed 11 goals in 5 World Cup preliminaries. B Fee (3 goals, 2 assists), Leo (4 assists) form the core offensive hub. Even if Ronaldo is absent, Gonzalo Ramos, Felix and other attackers can still support a multi-point system. Defensive end: There are obvious hidden dangers, conceding 9 goals in the past 5 games. The defense was full of holes when losing 0-2 to Ireland in the last round away game. However, the home defense is solid, with 5 wins and 1 draw in the past 6 home games, and the average conceding is only 0.8 goals per game. Key changes: Cristiano Ronaldo was suspended due to a red card (the first time in his national team career), but Fernando B was released from the ban and returned to enhance midfield control. Nuno Mendes and other main defenders are all on the list, and the overall thickness of the lineup is still top-notch.

Armenia event analysis:

Qualifying situation and fighting spirit: The world ranking is only about 103. Currently, it is at the bottom of the group with 1 win, 4 losses and 3 points. It has missed the World Cup in advance. This game is purely a "battle of honor" and lacks the hard pressure to score points. The team has only 2 wins, 1 draw and 7 losses in the past 10 games, scoring 9 goals and conceding 27 goals. The overall competitiveness is far from the front of the group.

Offensive and defensive difficulties and lineup crisis: Offensive end: Extremely weak. Only 2 goals were scored in 5 games in the World Cup preliminaries, and all of them were contributed by core Spelzjan. Now the latter's injury has caused the offensive efficiency to plummet by 60%, averaging 10.3 shots per game but the conversion rate is less than 10%, and only 1 goal has been scored in the past 6 away games. Defensive end: It is a disaster, conceding 2.8 goals per game, ranking fifth from the bottom in Europe. The main center back Hovhannes Young is suspended and the core midfield interceptor Spertson is injured. The defense line is reorganized into a substitute combination. The success rate of aerial duels is only 39%, which is full of loopholes. Missing core: captain Barseghyan was suspended due to a red card, Mkhitaryan was absent due to infection, midfield organization and offensive creativity were almost disconnected, and the tactical system that originally relied on a single core was completely lost.

Comprehensive event analysis:

Historical confrontations and psychological advantages Portugal occupies an absolute dominant position. It has 6 wins and 1 draw in 7 games and remains unbeaten, scoring 19 goals and conceding 4 goals. In September this year, it swept Armenia 5-0 away from home in the first round. Cristiano Ronaldo and Felix scored twice. The psychological suppression caused by this historical record made Armenia timid before fighting. Portugal will continue to exert pressure by virtue of its ball control advantage, focusing on attacking Armenia's reorganized side defense and high-altitude shortcomings, and wearing down the opponent's dense defense through multiple rounds of conduct. Even without Ronaldo, the offensive end can still create enough threats. Although Armenia wants to stick to the 5-4-1 formation, its interception ability in the midfield has dropped by 40%, making it difficult to continuously cut off Portugal's passing lines. Long passes are easily destroyed by the opponent during counterattacks, and there is a high probability that they will fall into a "passive beating" situation. Taking into account Armenia's intensive defense and Portugal's offensive ability, a 2-0 or 3-0 score is most likely. Portugal is expected to easily win at home and successfully secure qualification for the World Cup.
