Preview

Can Cristiano Ronaldo finally find his goalscoring form at this tournament? That's the major question facing Portugal ahead of their meeting with Hungary.

Ronaldo is struggling.

The nation's usually prolific No. 7 has been surprisingly profligate through two matches. Ronaldo has yet to score and missed a penalty in the 0-0 draw against Austria.

In fact, Ronaldo has now hit 20 shots without finding the net, according to Richard Innes of theย Daily Mirror. He's cut a frustrated figure in a squad that has failed to click in forward areas so far.

It hasn't helped that winger Nani and playmaker Andre Gomes have also failed to sparkle consistently.

Portugal's premier attacking talents may find it tough to get on track against a Hungary team that is very adept at bossing possession. A midfield loaded with technical quality has produced, quick, neat and stylish football.

The star so far has been schemer Adam Nagy. A gifted creator forย Ferencvaros, the 21-year-old is also the hub of ideas for his nation.ย He's directed matches with class and assurance on the ball.

His battle with Portugal destroyer William Carvalho will be fascinating and decisive in this one.

Iceland have displayed an admirable willingness to graft that's earned them a pair of creditable draws so far. Itโ€™s also helped that key players such as Gylfi Sigurdsson have risen to the occasion.

By contrast, Austria have been blighted by disappointing showings from their key men. In particular, star forwardย Marko Arnautovic has lacked inspiration.

Itโ€™s late in the day for Arnautovic and his team-mates to suddenly find their spark. Another tough, low-scoring affair awaits these teams, a result sure to condemn both to an early exit.

Those waiting for the real Belgium to reveal themselves are probably still wondering. It's difficult to make any definitive judgement about a team that was beaten soundly 2-0 by Italy and then thumped the Republic of Ireland 3-0.

There are many star names in a squad that often flatters to deceive. Among them, striker Romelu Lukaku bagged a brace last time out, but his focus could be distracted by transfer talk.

Lukaku needs more consistency.

His agent has been talking up an Everton stay amid rumours of a possible move, per Belgian publicationย Sportwereldย (h/t the Press Association, via the Daily Mail).

A fully focused Lukaku can cause damage for any defence, but he needs more consistent support from mercurial winger Eden Hazard.

Belgium head coach Marc Wilmotsย also needs to loosen the shackles and adopt more progressive tactics to allow the attack-minded talents in his squad to flourish.

It will be interesting to see how many players Italy boss Antonio Conte chooses to rest with qualification already secured. This might be an ideal game to give Napoli forward Lorenzo Insigne a chance to showcase his pace, perceptive movement and keen finishing.

Italy have refined an effective way to play, so any fringe players used in this final group game will be entering a system they know well and have the chance to stake a claim for extended action in the knockout phase.
