Portugal, France clash

UEFA European Championship Final
Kick-off: Sunday 3:00 p.m. ET
Line: Portugal +350, France +100, Tie +212
Total: 2.5 (Over +160, Under -195)

Portugal and France square off at the Euro 2016 Final.

Portugal was extremely fortunate to find itself in the knockout stage after going winless in the group stage, but the Iberian nation advanced into the final thanks to an impressive 2-0 win over Wales in the semi-finals.

Rui Patricio will start in net for the Portuguese, with a defense featuring Raphael Guerreiro, Cedric Soares, and Jose Fonte. Center back Pepe could miss out through a thigh injury, and if this is indeed the case, either Bruno Alves or Ricardo Carvalho will slot in.

In midfield, William Carvalho should start after missing out in the semi-finals through yellow card suspension, with Joao Mario, Renato Sanches, and Adrien Silva also in the lineup.

In attack, feared duo Nani and Cristiano Ronaldo will hope to score and give their nation its first title in a major tournament.

France will counter with goalkeeper Hugo Lloris and a defense of Patrice Evra, Laurent Koscielny, and Bacary Sagna, with Samuel Umtiti likely to get the nod at center back over Adil Rami after a superb performance in the semi-finals against Germany.

Blaise Matuidi, Paul Pogba, and Moussa Sissoko will start in midfield, with the dangerous Antoine Griezmann and Dimitri Payet in behind Olivier Giroud in attack.

Euro 2016 championship final betting cheat sheet and odds

The Euro 2016 championship is all set. France and Portugal took vastly different routes to get to this point, but it will be a level playing field Sunday in Saint-Denis for this clash of European superpowers.

Home Sweet Home

France (Even) looks for yet another major soccer title on its home turf as it tangles with Portugal n Sunday’s European Championships final in Paris. The French side has been wildly successful as the host of a major tournament, prevailing in the 1984 Euro title game and the 1998 World Cup. France also prevailed in the 2000 European Championships as the co-host. The French had little trouble reaching the title game, cruising to a 2-0 victory over short-handed Germany in Tuesday’s semifinal

Ending the Title Drought

The Portuguese (+330) haven’t had nearly as much success on the world stage as their French opponents, coming into Sunday’s game still looking for its first major championship. The sting of a Euro 2004 final loss to Greece still lingers, but Portugal is in great shape to end 12 years of heartache after putting forth its best effort of the tournament in a 2-0 triumph over Wales in the semifinals. Cristiano Ronaldo and Nani had goals as the Portuguese won in regulation for the first time in the tournament.

How They Got Here

* France breezed through an underwhelming Group A, earning two victories and a draw to land atop the group. A 2-1 victory over Ireland in the first knockout round had some fans nervous, but that trepidation disappeared with an emphatic 5-2 win over Iceland in the quarterfinals.

* Portugal showed poor form in Group F play, settling for three draws and qualifying as one of the four bottom teams. The Portuguese needed 117 minutes to upend Croatia 1-0 in the Round of 16, then used penalty kicks to subdue Poland after the teams played to a 1-1 draw.

News and Notes

* English referee Mark Clattenburg has been tabbed to officiate Sunday’s final. Clattenburg has an impressive resume, highlighted by his appointment to the Champions League final between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid.

* French star Antoine Greizmann needs just one goal to set a national record for most goals in Euro history, entering Sunday tied with Thierry Henry at six goals. Greizmann is a -50,000 bet to finish as the tourney scoring leader.

Injury Update

* The Portuguese side will receive an enormous boost with the return of elite defender Pepe, who was a full participant in Saturday’s training session. Pepe was forced out of the semifinal win over Wales with a lingering thigh injury.

Weather Watch

State de France is expected to see some cloud cover but little chance of rain, with temperatures in the mid-70s at kickoff.

Props of the Day

* Antoine Greizmann to score and France to win: Yes (+250): Greizmann has been the class of the tournament, and would love nothing more than to convert one more time in front of a raucous home crowd. With France also comfortably favored, this is one of the safest doubles out there.

* Winning margin: France by 1 goal (+250): The French side should prevail in this one, but it won’t be easy. Portugal has rediscovered its world class form and will be completely healthy. Look for France to pull this one out, but it should be a close one no matter the outcome.

Key Stats and Trends

* The French have won eight straight meetings with their Portuguese foes, and are 12-2-1 in 15 all-time meetings at home.

* France defeated Portugal in both the 1984 and 2000 Euro semifinals en route to championship victories. Both games were decided in extra time.

* Ronaldo’s next Euro goal will move him past Michel Platini and into sole possession of top spot on the tournament’s all-time scoring list.

Portugal stuns host France to win Euro

Portugal overcame the loss of injured captain Cristiano Ronaldo to beat France 1-0 in the European Championship final on Sunday, with a goal in extra time from substitute Eder securing their country's first football title.

Just as the final looked destined for a penalty shootout, Eder cut through the French defense and struck a low shot from 25 meters (yards) past goalkeeper Hugo Lloris in the 109th minute at the Stade de France.

Twelve years after losing to Greece on home soil in their last final appearance, it was Portugal's turn to spoil the host nation's party. And they achieved it by winning only one of their seven games at Euro 2016 inside 90 minutes.

It was dull and stodgy at times but the record books will only show that Portugal went from third-place in its group to champion, with little help from Ronaldo in its last match.

European football's biggest match lost its biggest name midway through the first half of a cagey final on the outskirts of the French capital.

Ronaldo went down under Dimitri Payet's ninth-minute challenge and was twice forced off to receive treatment on the touchline.

However determined Ronaldo was to lead Portugal to glory, his left knee could cope no more and he was carried off on a stretcher midway through the first half.

Ronaldo was in tears but he returned just before extra time to address his weary teammates. They seemed to be inspired by Ronaldo's re-emergence and the Real Madrid forward was soon leaping off the bench in celebrations.

Then he was lying on the turf again at the final whistle, this time in disbelief rather than pain
