Prediction: 2-1
Famalicao
After surviving Casa Pia at Estadio Municipal de Rio Maior, Porto will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they face Famalicao on Saturday. The Dragons aim to overtake Braga in third position and they are likely to go all guns blazing at Famalicao. Martim Fernandes is banned for the match, while fellow defender Nahuen Perez is back from suspension.
Os Azuis e Brancos, on the other hand, are eyeing their fourth consecutive win in the Portuguese top flight, but given their anything but good form on the road, we are tempted to bet on Martin Anselmi’s men this time out. The good news for the visiting side is that defender Rafa Soares is back from suspension. In the first half of the season, the two sides played out a 1-1 draw, but home win should definitely be considered this time out.
Highlighted Team (Porto):
Futebol Clube do Porto are one of Portugal’s biggest football clubs playing their matches in front of 50,000 people at their Estadio do Dragao. Porto form biggest rivalries with two other Big Three clubs in Portugal and regular league title contenders – Benfica and Sporting CP. Rivalries between the clubs stem from the historical, political, economical and cultural discrepancies between the cities of Porto and Lisbon. The Dragons, as they are commonly known in Portugal, are the second most successful Portuguese team with a total of 74 trophies to their name.
Porto hold a record of five consecutive league titles which are part of the total tally of 27 Primeira Liga trophies. FC Porto’s success extends to the international scene as well with seven European titles. Two-time European champions from 1987 and 2004, Porto also won two UEFA Cup/Europa League titles, the UEFA Super Cup and the International Cup on two occasions. Together with Barcelona, Real Madrid and Manchester United, Porto have the most appearances in the UEFA Champions League group stage – the total of 20.
