Manager Fernando Santos\u2019 side believes that Austria\u2019s loss could give the Portuguese a slim advantage, especially since the Austrians still have some good players, and won nine matches in qualifying.<\/p>\n<p><p><a href=\"http:\/\/record.tbaffiliate.com\/_y8k7RB3Ll4xutv7iXV6HvmNd7ZgqdRLk\/35\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-110643 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/250x130-Euro-2016-News-Banners.gif\" alt=\"250x130-Euro-2016-News-Banners\" width=\"250\" height=\"130\" \/><\/a><\/p>Austria may be tough, but Seleccao das Quinas should still have the advantage with Cristiano Ronaldo leading the charge. The three-time Ballon d\u2019Or winner has 58 international goals in 127 career caps. However, it wasn\u2019t the Real Madrid star who scored in the tournament opener against Iceland. Instead, Nani netted the first score of the match on an assist from Andre Gomes.<\/p>\n<p>Portugal are in excellent form, going 4-1-1 in their last six matches.<\/p>\n<h3>Betting on Austria (<a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/uefa-euro-2016\/group-stage\" target=\"_blank\">+253<\/a>)<\/h3>\n<p>Austria were embarrassed 2-0 by unheralded Hungary in their Euro 2016 opener. They\u2019ll take an even bigger hit with center back Alexander Dragovic suspended after being awarded a red card in Tuesday\u2019s loss. Replacing him will be 23-year-old Kevin Wimmer, who may suddenly have a target on his back from a Portugal side featuring one of the best scorers in the world.<\/p>\n<p>The <em>Wunderteam<\/em> were lackluster in their opening fixture, but they won\u2019t let themselves be pushovers heading into this match. The Austrians still have star striker Marc Janko, who had seven goals in nine qualifying matches. He was also hot in club competition, scoring 16 in 20 matches for Swiss champions Basel this past season.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Austria also have a solid midfielder David Alaba, who could keep tabs on Portugal\u2019s Cristiano Ronaldo.<\/p>\n<p>But as solid as they should be, Austria are not in very good form having lost their last two matches where\u00a0they were outscored 4-0.<\/p>\n<h3>Writer\u2019s Prediction<\/h3>\n<p>Portugal (<a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/uefa-euro-2016\/group-stage\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>-140<\/strong><\/a>) hand Austria a second straight loss to start Euro 2016.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/record.tbaffiliate.com\/_y8k7RB3Ll4xutv7iXV6HvmNd7ZgqdRLk\/6\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"broken_link\" rel=\"nofollow\">Create a betting account now<\/a> and get plenty of world-class soccer action.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/record.tbaffiliate.com\/_y8k7RB3Ll4xutv7iXV6HvmNd7ZgqdRLk\/35\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-110646 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/620x110-Euro-2016-News-Banners.gif\" alt=\"620x110-Euro-2016-News-Banners\" width=\"620\" height=\"110\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Austria disappointed in their tournament opener, losing to unheralded Hungary 2-0.
