Paul Dickov likens Euro 2016 semi-finalists Wales to league winners Leicester

Former Manchester City striker Paul Dickov has claimed that Wales could upset the odds by reaching the Euro 2016 final.

Chris Coleman's side will take on Portugal in Lyon this evening, and should they overcome Cristiano Ronaldo and his teammates, they could face either Germany or France in the final.

Wales, whose participation in the major tournament is their first since 1958, topped the group before beating Northern Ireland in the last-16 stage and Belgium in the quarter-finals.

Dickov has likened the team to Leicester City, who caused a shock last season by winning the Premier League title - their first in the club's history.

In an interview with Betsafe, Dickov said: "I've got a sneaking suspicion about Wales, they could be the underdogs like Leicester last year. Nobody thought Wales could get out the group stages really. Wales are a dangerous team, otherwise they wouldn't have got to the semi-final."

Portugal have not yet won a game in 90 minutes during the tournament.
