Portugal To Find Gregor Townsend's Scotland Too Hot To Handle

The Scots are coming to town!

Portugal will face Gregor Townsend's Scotland in a mouthwatering clash on Saturday, with both sides looking to make a statement in the Six Nations. Scotland have been in impressive form in recent months, winning their last three games, while Portugal will be looking to cause an upset and claim their first victory in the competition since 2017.

Scotland will be without a number of key players for the match, including captain Stuart Hogg and vice-captain Jamie Ritchie. However, Townsend has named a strong side, with Finn Russell and Huw Jones set to start in the backs, and Sam Skinner and Grant Gilchrist in the forwards.

Portugal will also be missing some key players, including captain Joao Granate and vice-captain Vasco Uva. However, they will be boosted by the return of flanker Antonio Esgarraun and centre Jose Lima, who have both been in impressive form for their clubs this season.

The Match

The match is expected to be a close encounter, with both sides memiliki strengths and weaknesses. Scotland will be looking to use their physicality and power to dominate the forward battle, while Portugal will be looking to use their speed and skill to move the ball quickly and create chances.

The key battle in the match could be at scrum-half, where Scotland's Ali Price will face off against Portugal's Samuel Marques. Price is one of the most exciting young players in the world, while Marques is a vastly experienced campaigner who has played at the highest level for many years.

The match is set to be a sell-out, with a large contingent of Scottish fans expected to make the trip to Lisbon. It promises to be a great occasion, and one that could have a big impact on the outcome of the Six Nations.
