A potentially historic summer for Portugal begins in Lisbon, as Roberto Martínez’s side face Chile in a pre-World Cup friendly on Saturday evening.

The one-time European champions boast a roster capable of conquering the soccer world in North America, with Cristiano Ronaldo, a domestic champion once more, still leading the way heading into his sixth World Cup.

The Iberians claimed UEFA Nations League glory last year and have lost just one of their previous 13 games, qualifying for the upcoming tournament with relative ease. However, success on the biggest stages has so far eluded this mightily talented crop of players since Éder struck at the Stade de France 10 years ago.

Portugal is facing a Chile outfit that’s suffered quite the fall from grace over the past decade, with the 2015 and 2016 Copa América champions missing their third World Cup in succession after finishing bottom of the CONMEBOL qualifying group.

Here‘s how you can tune into Portugal’s upcoming friendly around the globe.

  • Stadium: Estádio Nacional

Plenty of nations have already flown out to North America in a bid to acclimatise to conditions, but Portugal won’t be heading across the Atlantic until after its warm-up games.

Nigeria visit the Portuguese capital on Wednesday for a friendly, a week out from Portugal’s opening game of the tournament against the DR Congo. Its first two games are in Houston, with the third, against Colombia, held in Miami.

Portugal has selected Palm Beach, Florida, as its base camp for the World Cup.
