Portugal, who lost the 2015 final to Sweden on penalties, will be looking to get off to a strong start against Serbia, who are outsiders to win the competition.

Portugal have been unbeaten since they lost the final, winning 11 and drawing three of their matches. Their squad includes two fully-fledged internationals in Renato Sanches and Joao Cancelo.
