Cristiano Ronaldo and Portugal kick-off their World Cup campaign on Wednesday evening in a clash with DR Congo in Houston.
Roberto Martinez's men are favourites to top Group K as they hunt for a first World Cup crown, and they are fourth in the outright betting.
The DR Congo are appearing at their second World Cup, their first since 1974 when they competed as Zaire.
