- Including friendly matches, it will be the 29th meeting between Portugal and France. The precedents show the transalpine team with a clear advantage with 19 wins (3 draws and 6 wins for Portugal).
- At the European level, it will be the 5th match between Portugal and France. On 3 of the previous 4 occasions, the game ended in overtime.
- The last meeting between the two teams dates back to the group stage of the last European championships. The match ended with the score 2-2.
– The two teams have met three times in the semi-finals of the World Cup and the European Championship and France has always won (3-2 in "EURO 1984", 2-1 in "euro 2000" and 1-0 in the 2006 World Cup in Germany).
– The most notable precedent between the two teams is the "EURO 2016" final when Portugal lifted the trophy by defeating France 1-0 with Eder's goal in extra time. This is also the last victory of Portugal against the Transalpine team. Deschamps wants "revenge" for that result, which still burns despite the fact that 2 years later he would lead France to the top of the world in Russia. However, before that 2016 final, Portugal had not beaten France for 40 years.
– Portugal and France face each other today at 21:00. The Lusitanians are in excellent form, having won 4 of the last 5 games and the success with a penalty against Slovenia has charged Ronaldo and his friends even more. France is coming off two hard-fought wins and three draws, as it has yet to score its first goal in action.
- After Weber's own goal and Mbappe's penalty against Poland, the Belgian Jan Vertongen's own goal made the "Roosters" go to the quarterfinals without yet scoring a classic goal, or in other words in action. Something like this has never happened in a European and in this respect France sets a record, having scored in three different ways, given that even the own goals had non-identical dynamics.
