Portugal vs Austria Euro 2024 Tickets

It can be incredibly hard to find tickets for key international fixtures, from crucial qualifiers to the ultimate prize, major finals tickets. These really are the toughest seats to purchase, be that for the European Championships or the FIFA World Cup.

For instance, UEFA only releases tickets in specific windows, and initially, these are quite literally lotteries, and even then, millions of requests are made for far fewer tickets, making it a lottery you are more than likely to lose.

Fortunately, SeatPick can help make sure you get to the game. Our platform works with hundreds of trusted ticket reseller sites to bring our users the widest selection of tickets for every major fixture, which supporters can then peruse in order to find those that suit their budgets and schedules. Why not try it out?

Portugal vs Austria UEFA Euros Tournament Record

Portugal have always done well at the UEFA European Championships though it did take them a while to finally crack the code and qualify for the finals. That first appearance came in 1984 and saw A Seleção das Quinas reach the Semi-Finals, where it took an extra-time winner from celebrated French legend Michel Platini to defeat them 3-2.

At Euro 2000, France once again defeated Portugal in the Semi-Finals, Zinedine Zidane scoring the key goal on that occasion.

Four years later, with Portugal as hosts, that first title was almost within touching distance, and a final clash with Greece should have been a relatively easy proposition, but somehow Luiz Felipe Scolari’s side lost 1-0 at the Estadio da Luz, having also lost to the Greeks in the group phase.

In 2016 Portugal defeated France to win their first major tournament, but it wasn’t Cristiano Ronaldo who delivered the killer blow against Les Bleus (the then Real Madrid star was subbed off injured early on); it was Eder who fired home an astonishing extra-time winner.

Austria have a poor record in the UEFA European Championships, with their first appearance in the finals not coming until 2008, and even then, this only occurred because they were joint hosts (with neighbours Switzerland).

They managed just one point from their three group stage games on that occasion, and eight years later, when they finally qualified on merit, they repeated the feat with just one draw from their three games.

Euro 2020 represented real progress. Austria defeated both North Macedonia and Ukraine to finish second in their group to set up a round of 16 encounter with Italy. The game was goalless after 90 minutes, and goals from Federico Chiesa and Matteo Pessina saw the Italians win 2-1 en route to winning the competition.

Portugal vs Austria Head-to-Head

These two nations have only met once in UEFA European Championship finals action, as of 2023, and that match ended 0-0 in Paris, with Portugal eventually edging into the knockout phase while the Austrians finished bottom of the pile in Group F at Euro 2016.
