FC Porto have become the strongest club in Group D which had also been formed by Leixoes, Rio Ave and Ferreira. The side played three matches within the League Cup, having got two wins and a draw in them. “Dragoes”’ attack looked extremely decent with six goals scored, however, it defense also didn’t face with hard tasks, having conceded just two goals. FC Porto recorded three victories over Tondela 1:0, Moreirense 2:1 and Guimaraes 4:2 in their latest battles.
All previous tackles between the opponents were extremely tight. The first-lap rivals’ head-to-head of this season’s Primeira Liga ended with 0:0 draw. It is hard to define the favourite of the upcoming game as both clubs show spectacular football. Therefore, I presume that it is going to be a thrilling fight, however, with not many goals scored in it.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.0 scored goals.
