FC Porto hosts Marseille in round 3 of the Champions League group stage. The match will be played on Tuesday, November 3rd at Estádio do Dragão (Porto)
The Portuguese team managed to rectify the situation in the Champions League after a home defeat to Manchester City. FC Porto beat Olympiacos at home (2:0). In the championship, the team of Sergio Conceição looked tired after that, and the coach of the Dragons applied a wide rotation in the match with Pacos de Ferreira. However, Porto played badly in defense. It was not for nothing that the Dragons conceded two goals in the first half from a more modest team, and everything ended with a 2-3 score. Obviously, fatigue affects - not many teams can show stable results in such a frantic schedule, even with a decent bench.

France is in difficult political conditions coupled with the coronavirus, so Olympique missed the game of the local championship. However, it would be fresher in the match at do Dragao. The visitors have nothing to lose after two defeats to Olympiacos and Man City, so they will probably be more active in the attack.
Marseille is disappointing. Nevertheless, Villas-Boas must exploit all the weaknesses of his former team that will allow him to crack the Dragons’ defense. This factor and the fatigue of Porto, as well as the absence of any tasks for Marseille, will force the French team to risk more than usual. Therefore, I think the visitors will be able to score at least once.
Prediction for the match: Marseille to score over 0.5 goals
