The question lies here is that if the two sides will be able to continue their impressive form in the quarter final as well. The answer will make the difference between the two teams in the match.

Portugal is the champion of Group A and Germany is the Runner-up of Group B, after playing three matches in the qualifying match. The Quarter final of Euro 2008 is a knock out.

Germany's last meeting with Portugal in the European Championship was a humiliating 3-0 defeat in the group phase in 2000 but they did get a measure of revenge with a 3-1 victory in the third-placed match at the last World Cup. So Germany is the most favorite for the Euro Cup Championship.
