It hasn't been the prettiest tournament for France or Portugal. But each team has survived and advanced into the Quarter-Final.
However, this time, only one of these teams will make it to the Semis. Therefore, we won't see either Christiano Ronaldo or Kylian Mbappe in the Semis. One of the two will be eliminated.
Ronaldo missed a penalty shot to help push Portugal through in extra time against Slovenia in the Round of 16. However, he came through after overtime in the penalty shootout, and Portugal advanced anyway.
On the other hand, France advanced on an own goal in the 85th minute against Belgium. France has yet to score an open-play goal. In four games this tournament, they've added two own goals and a penalty shot goal.
That's concerning for France. Yet, they're still favorites to advance to the Semis over Portugal. Take a look at the odds and betting data for yourself below.

Portugal vs. France Prediction
Both teams have struggled to find the back of the net. Portugal hasn't scored a goal since the 56th minute of Game 2 against Turkey. Since, they've lost to Georgia, 0-2, and needed a penalty shootout against Slovenia in a game that finished 0-0 in regulation and extra time.
On the other hand, as I mentioned earlier, France hasn't scored an open-play goal. They've added two own goals and a penalty shot, but that's it.
I'll take the Under 2.5 in regulation, even at -190.
