The quarter-finals begin with an absolute cracker of a match - will Cristiano Ronaldo inspire Portugal to victory, or will the Germans improve on their group performances to make the semi-finals?

Phil Scolari's men are deserved favourites at 7/5 with bet365, considering they have beaten Turkey 2-0 and Czech Republic 3-1 so far. Our official online bookmaker have Germany as the outsiders at 9/4, but we know that it's dangerous to write off Joachim Low's team, who did start Euro 2008 as favourites.

Ronaldo is 5/1 to open the scoring on Thursday night, while he is also 7/5 to score at any time. For the opposition, bet365's 15/2 about Lukas Podolski scoring first or last could be interesting, while Chelsea's Ricardo Carvalho could be a threat from set pieces and is a tasty 33/1 with bet365 to open the scoring.

We're going for a 2-1 win in favour of Portugal, which is currently available at 9/1. Ronaldo to score first combined with the above scoreline is a massive 40/1 chance, while Portugal to score a penalty is also interesting at 13/2.
