Check out the starting lineups for Portugal and Iceland for this UEFA Euro 2024 qualifier at Laugardalsvollur. Record-breaking Cristiano Ronaldo returns alongside five Premier League stars as they face off against underdogs Iceland.

Portugal return for another Euro 2024 qualifier, this time against Iceland, after beating Bosnia 3-0 on Saturday. Portugal lead Group J, and are looking to take their fourth win from their fourth game here.

Captain Cristiano Ronaldo returns, making his 200th appearance - the most of any footballer in men's international history. He is joined by some of the Premier League's biggest names including Ruben Dias (Manchester City), Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United) and Bernardo Silva (Manchester City), among others.

Iceland are the clear underdogs in this matchup, sitting bottom of the group, with just one win from three games. They face a serious challenge, as Portugal are yet to concede a goal in qualifiers.
