Our prediction for this Champions League match:
Schalke will be looking to kick off their Champions League campaign in style when they host Porto at their VELTINS-Arena on Tuesday evening. Schalke continue life without key midfielder Leon Goretzka, who joined Bayern Munchen in the summer transfer window and it is no surprise they have been struggling to find their best form at the start of the new Bundesliga campaign. Porto, on the other hand, did well to win the national championship last term and they are surely eager to continue with fine performances in the elite competition. A close encounter is on the cards in Gelsenkirchen and we predict that the two teams are going to share the spoils in their Champions League opener. When the two teams met in a friendly three years ago they played out a goalless draw and the history is likely to repeat itself.
