10:30 PM: Hello everyone and welcome to Khel Now’s LIVE COVERAGE of the UEFA Euro 2024 Round of 16 match between Portugal vs Slovenia. The kick-off is just a few hours away! I am your host Waseem and will keep you company through what promises a fascinating night of football. Please wait for 30 seconds for the Live blog to load.

The 2016 Euro Champions and one of the Euro 2024 title favorites Portugal will look to bounce back to winning ways after unexpectedly falling short against Georgia in their final group game. Roberto Martínez’s men finished at the top of Group F and will face Slovenia in the round of 16 clash.

The Cristiano Ronaldo-equipped side will hope to regroup and put the last game behind their back as they head into the game against an undefeated side from Group C. Moreover, A Seleção will also want to level up their performance from the last edition and go past this round.

Slovenia on the other hand will be hopeful to hand Martínez and Co. another upset at the championship and recreate the memories from their 2-0 win earlier this year. The Jan Oblak-led side are one among the only seven teams to remain undefeated so far in the tournament. Reprezentanca will also look to take full advantage of Portugal’s ‘not so convincing’ form in knockout games.

Players to watch 

Bernardo Silva (Portugal)

The Manchester City midfielder will have a huge responsibility on his shoulders to create chances for his nation in this must-win game. Silva has already found the back of the net in the Euro 2024 tournament and will be keen on adding more goals and assists to his tally.

He fuels the attack with his excellent passing and playmaking abilities. Moreover, he was the missing piece of the puzzle in his side’s defeat against Georgia

Jaka Bijol (Slovenia)

Jaka Bijol has been performing exceptionally well for Slovenia during the competition. He is the champion when it comes to winning aerial duels. Bijol also knows when and how to position himself in the game and has also scored one of the two goals for his side.

The defender will have to be at the top of his game to keep a check on Portugal’s star-studded attacking unit.
