  • Sebastian Coates (l) is confident in Uruguay's chances against Portugal.

    Uruguay defender Sebastian Coates believes his team’s familiarity with Portugal will serve them well in the Round of 16 clash at the World Cup.

    The two sides will meet on Saturday after Uruguay topped Group A and Portugal finished second behind Spain in Group B.

    Coates said of the encounter: “We know their players very well. We have had experience either against or with them at club level and so the familiarity is there.”
