Prediction: 1-1
Liverpool
Porto and Liverpool face each other at Estadio do Dragao in a highly-anticipated football spectacle. The Dragons are on a quest to regain the domestic trophy, but they have big ambitions for the elite competition as well. Porto produced a fine display in a goalless draw with Atletico Madrid in their opener, and they are surely capable of matching Liverpool, who experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 3-3 draw with Brentford.
Mbemba is banned for the hosts, while both Marchesin and Pepe are sidelined with injuries. The Reds, on the other hand, came from behind to beat Milan 3-2 in the opening match of their Champions League campaign. Jurgen Klopp’s troops have been scoring goals for fun of late, and, taking everything into account, we believe that both teams to score betting option should be considered. Both Thiago Alcantara and Harvey Elliott miss out with injuries.
Highlighted Player (Pepe):
Pepe is a professional footballer who plays for Porto as a defender. The Portuguese international played for Maritimo at the start of his senior career and in 2004 he moved to Porto. After making 64 league appearances for the Dragons, he signed a contract with Real Madrid in 2007 and he quickly established himself as a first-team regular.
Pepe is well known for his hard tackles and referees often show him red card. The Real Madrid centre back often played as a defensive midfielder under Jose Mourinho and it has to be noted that he scored five goals in all competitions in the 2013/2014 La Liga campaign.
The Portuguese footballer won his second Champions League trophy with Real Madrid in the 2015/2016 season and later in 2016 he helped A Selecao win the European Championship trophy. Portugal defeated France in the title game and Pepe played an important role in Fernando Santos’ team in the Euro 2016 final. The Real Madrid defender was born in Maceio, Brazil on 26 February, 1983.
Highlighted Team (Liverpool):
Founded back in 1892, Liverpool are one of England’s and world’s most famous clubs. The Reds hold a high-profile rivalry with Everton and there have always been fireworks when the two teams take on each other in the Merseyside derby.
The Reds welcome their opponents at Anfield and it has to be noted that they have already won 18 first division trophies. Liverpool were on the verge of lifting the 2014/2015 Premier League trophy, but Steven Gerrard slipped in the decider against Chelsea and left the Reds without a title.
Liverpool won one of their last Champions League trophy's in 2005, with the team coming from three goals behind to beat Milan in a historic clash in Istanbul. The Reds have clinched six European Cups and it is no surprise they are regarded as one of the greatest European clubs.
The likes of Steven Gerrard, Robbie Fowler, Paul Ince, Ian Rush, Graeme Souness, Sami Hyypia and Luis Suarez are some of the most notable footballers to have represented the club over the years. The club’s anthem is You’ll Never Walk Alone and their shirt colour is red.
