The Keys to Portugal victory over Bosnia:

Score First

Portugal will need to find the net first in this encounter and the earlier the better, an early Portuguese goal will have Bosnia opening up from their defensive shell. Portugal have the fire power to punish the Bosnians if this happens.

Cristiano Ronaldo

The Captain missed a glorious chance in the first leg, some may say the bad condition of the field had something to do with that but never the less # 7 will need to bring his game to another level. A Ronaldo goal not only inspires the confidence in the player but also the squad.

Control the set pieces

The kryptonite of the Portugal National team, Portugal will need to contain the Bosnians on set pieces, the game could be won or lost with just one miscoverage.
