Colombia x Portugal: where to watch live, time and lineups for today’s FIFA World Cup
Colombia and Portugal will face each other in a crucial dispute for the leadership of Group K of the World Cup this Saturday (27). The match, which will start at 8:30 pm (Brasília time) in Miami, United States, will be decisive in defining the final positions in the bracket, taking place simultaneously with the clash between DR Congo and Uzbekistan.
The Colombian team arrives at the clash in first place in Group K, maintaining an impeccable performance with 100% success rate after victories over Uzbekistan and DR Congo. Already assured in the knockout stage, the team led by coach Néstor Lorenzo only needs a draw to guarantee the leadership of the group.
On the other hand, Portugal seeks to consolidate its positive momentum after a 5-0 thrashing of Uzbekistan. With four points accumulated, the team led by Cristiano Ronaldo already has its place guaranteed, at least, among the best third-placed teams, but needs a victory to advance in first place.
Tactical configurations and probable lineups for the confrontation
The Colombian team under the command of Néstor Lorenzo
Coach Néstor Lorenzo must maintain the 4-3-3 tactical structure, being able to make a single change to the main squad compared to the victorious match against DR Congo. There is a strong possibility that Córdoba will be included in the Colombian attack, replacing Luis Suárez, a change already observed during the previous game against the African team.
In the offensive sector, Daniel Muñoz, a full-back who has stood out for his forays and two goals scored, and Luís Díaz, acclaimed star of Bayern Munich, are among the main names who could shine, alongside James Rodríguez.
Colombia’s probable formation is: Vargas; Muñoz, Davinson Sánchez, Lucumí and Mojica; Lerma, Puerta and Jhon Arias; James Rodríguez, Córdoba and Luís Díaz.

Roberto Martínez’s choices for the Portuguese team
Spanish coach Roberto Martínez has the illustrious presence of Cristiano Ronaldo, who recently set a historic milestone by becoming the first athlete to score goals in six editions of the World Cup. This remarkable feat demonstrates not only his skill, but a longevity and consistency unprecedented in world football. Names like Bruno Fernandes, João Neves and Vitinha are also fundamental pieces for the team. The coach must maintain the 4-2-3-1 formation and the same team that defeated Uzbekistan.
Portugal’s likely lineup is: Diogo Costa; João Cancelo; Rúben Dias, Renato Veiga and Nuno Mendes; Vitinha and João Neves; Bruno Fernandes, Pedro Neto and João Félix; and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Portugal has no absences for the important game. They are suspended with a yellow card: Renato Veiga, Semedo, Tomás Araújo and Bernardo Silva.
