Prediction: 3-0
Boavista
Porto will be aiming to build on back-to-back wins over Estrela and Moreirense when they take on Boavista in the local derby. The Dragons look unstoppable at the moment, but they need to keep on improving their game if they are to regain the trophy. Bearing any fresh injury worries, Vitor Bruno is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated Moreirense at the weekend. The likes of Joao Mario, Marko Grujic, and Ivan Marcano, though, remain in the recovery room.
The Black and Whites, on the other hand, are stuck in the relegation zone with only 12 points on their account. As Porto are on a three-game winning run in meetings with Boavista at Estadio do Dragao, home win should definitely be considered. Important Boavista forward Robert Bozenik is rated doubtful for the Porto derby after limping off with injury in a goalless draw with AVS.
Highlighted Team (Boavista):
Founded on August 1, 1903, Boavista are a Portuguese club that welcome their rivals at Estadio do Bessa. The capacity of the venue is 28,263 and it was built back in 1911. As Panteras (The Panthers) are well known for their black and white shirts and white is the dominant colour of their away kit.
Famous Fellow city club Porto are considered Boavista’s main rivals and the two teams face each other in O Derby da Invicta and there have always been fireworks in clashes between the two local rivals. A Panteras did well to win their first and only Primeira Liga trophy in the 2000/2001 season, with the team finishing the campaign only one point clear of Porto.
