Cristiano Ronaldo leads Portugal into their World Cup qualifying match against Armenia on Saturday, September 6, 2025. The match will take place at 12:00 PM EDT at the Vazgen Sargsyan Republican Stadium in Yerevan, Armenia. Fans can watch the game on FOX Soccer Plus or stream it on Fubo.

Portugal aims to kick off its 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign with a strong performance. Ronaldo, who has been a key player for the national team, hopes to finally secure the World Cup title that has eluded him. This match comes just three months after Portugal won the UEFA Nations League for the second time.

The Portuguese team is expected to have a favorable path to the World Cup, with Hungary and the Republic of Ireland also in their qualifying group. Historically, Portugal has dominated its matches against Armenia, winning the last three encounters. The last time Armenia managed to secure a point against Portugal was in August 2007.

Under the guidance of coach Roberto Martinez, Portugal boasts a mix of experienced players and emerging talent, including 20-year-old Joao Neves. Armenia, on the other hand, relies heavily on homegrown talent, with Borussia Monchengladbach forward Grant-Leon Ranos being a standout player to watch.

As the teams prepare for this crucial match, both sides are looking to establish momentum in their quest for World Cup qualification.
