Changes should not stop Portugal
After triumphing in their opening two matches at Euro 2024, Portugal's place in the knockout stages as winners of Group F is already assured, which means head coach Roberto Martinez could ring the changes for this clash in Gelsenkirchen.
While multiple alterations to a starting XI could have a detrimental effect on some teams, Portugal have arguably more strength in depth than any side at the Euros and players such as Pedro Neto, Goncalo Ramos and Joao Felix will be eager to impress should they be handed an opportunity.
Portugal have won 15 of their 17 games since appointing former Belgium boss Martinez as head coach after the 2022 World Cup and no team scored more goals in qualifying than the Selecao.
Georgia need to realistically win this game if they are to reach the knockout stages at their maiden major tournament.
The Crusaders have shown plenty of attacking intent in Germany, scoring against both Turkey and the Czech Republic, but they have also conceded four goals across those two games and may struggle to keep Portugal at bay.
This is a match even a second-string Portugal should win with something to spare, but Georgia's need to attack may ensure that Willy Sagnol's side at least get on the scoresheet.

Ramos to seize chance again
Paris Saint-Germain forward Ramos is yet to feature at these finals, but he should get an opportunity in this game and his record of eight goals in 13 international appearances suggests he can seize his chance by getting on the scoresheet.
When handed an opportunity from the start at his last major tournament, Ramos did not disappoint, scoring a hat-trick as Portugal thrashed Switzerland 6-1 during the knockout stages of the last World Cup.
While another three-goal haul may be a stretch for Ramos this time around, the 23-year-old is capable of delivering even when opportunities are limited, as his 14 goals in just 21 starts for PSG this season would suggest.
