All eyes will be on Cristiano Ronaldo as the two teams from Group F battle it out for top honours. Neither setup have too many marquee players to fall back on and Portugal will be banking on the recently crowned Champions League winner Ronaldo to bail them out against Iceland, who are more than capable of pulling off an upset.

The Real Madrid star scored twice in their 7-0 win over Estonia in a pre-tournament friendly and the Portuguese man will be looking to extend his dominance for his national side. The game will mark his 127th for his country, equalling Luis Figo's record of appearances for his nation.

Meanwhile, this is the first time that Iceland are competing in a major tournament and are serious underdogs coming into the fixture. Coach Lars Lagerback has his work cut out for him but will be hoping for the likes of Gylfi Sigurdsson, who plays for Premier League side Swansea, to step up to the plate.

PORTUGAL

Star man: Ronaldo


The Real Madrid star's record for Portugal is quite phenomenal. He has 56 goals in 125 games, and will be on a personal crusade to prove he is the best player in Europe. He’s not the biggest team player, but his goals will be key to Portugal’s success here.

One to watch: Renato Sanches

We got a glimpse of Renato Sanches at Wembley last week and it became clear why Manchester United were so keen to sign the midfielder.

The Bayern Munich man, 18, showed great pace and confidence during his 18-minute cameo against England and ensured many will be watching his career with great interest from now on.

ICELAND

Star man: Gylfi Sigurdsson


The Swansea midfielder was their top scorer in qualifying with six goals and gets forward to bolster the attack.

One to watch: Eidur Gudjohnsen

Now 37, the former Chelsea forward won’t feature in the starting line-up but could well make a key impact as a substitute.

Portugal Possible XI: Patricio; Soares, Pepe, Fonte, Guerreiro; Gomes, Moutinho, Danilo; Quaresma, Nani, Ronaldo

Iceland Possible XI: Halldorsson; Saevarsson, Arnason, Sigurdsson, Skulason; Gudmundsson, Sigurdsson; Gunnarsson, Bjarnason, Sigthorsson; Bodvarsson.

Unlike most other Western countries Icelanders do not use family names but use a patronymic or matronymic reference. One's name reflects the immediate father or mother and does not refer to the person's historic family lineage. Although Iceland shares a common cultural heritage with the Scandinavian countries of Norway, Denmark and Sweden, it is only Iceland who continues to use their traditional naming system formerly common in all of Scandinavia.

The last name of a male Icelanders therefore usually ends in the suffix -son (“son”) and that of female Icelanders in -dóttir (“daughter”)

For example: Gudjohnson, son of Gudjohn
