Ferreira take on the visitors FC Porto at “Estadio da Capital do Movel” in the fight of the third matchday three of the Portuguese League Cup Group stage. The game will be played in Pacos de Ferreira on Saturday, December 30th.
Ferreira have earned a single point in two clashes played in the League Cup, having scored one and conceded two goals. It is obvious that the team’s current position is not very promising. The side has also collected only one point in three latest rounds conducted within the Portuguese Primeira Liga after 1:2 loss to Boavista, 1:1 draw against Belenenses and 0:3 defeat from Braga. The club is in an awful shape now. However, Ferreira have deserved its single point in the League Cup in a home battle against Rio Ave which was finished in 1:1 draw.

FC Porto look very solid in this season. The team has got four points in the League Cup, having scored three and conceded only one goal. The club’s defense as well as offense looks very tough. FC Porto have won their five latest encounters and one of them was a clash of the League Cup in which they beat Rio Ave with 3:0 scoreline. In the Portuguese Primeira Liga “Dragoes” broke Maritimo 3:1 and Guimaraes 4:0. The side shows now an outstanding competitive form and there no importance for it where to play – either at its own turf or on the road.
It is clear that “Dragoes” are the favourites of the forthcoming fight as it is very difficult to compete with them in Portugal. Last time Ferreira managed to break FC Porto in 2016 in face of their fans, still, almost all their head-to-heads were finished in FC Porto’s favour. I believe that the forthcoming battle will again be played by the visitors’ rules and they will most likely to get another win.
Prediction for the match: FC Porto to win with -1.0 Asian handicap.
