Team News

Porto
Famalicao
  • FC Porto are potentially short at centre-back with Pepe suspended and Chancel Mbemba a doubt. They do have Ivan Marcano and Malang Sarr available if needed.
  • Zaidu Sanusi is fully recovered from a thigh injury and should reclaim his starting spot at left-back.
  • Marchesín, Uribe, Sérgio Oliveira and Corona would miss out against Benfica if they are booked here so it wouldn't be a surprise if some were held back here.
  • Rúben Vinagre sustained an injury against CD Tondela last time out and is a doubt for Friday. Edwin Herrera will deputise if he fails to recover.
  • Ivo Vieira opted for a 4-3-3 formation without a pure striker last time around and might do it again here, with Leandro Campaña playing as false nine.
  • Diogo Queirós and Riccielli are in competition to start at centre-back for the away side.

Prediction

  • FC Porto required a late equaliser from the penalty spot to avoid defeat away to Moreirense last time out. They were far from impressive and as the scoreline suggests and are now only four points ahead of third-place Benfica on the eve of their meeting.
  • FC Famalicao blew a two-goal lead against Tondela last time out and are not quite safe yet in the league despite picking up some good results since Ivo Vieira took charge. Against a potentially weakened FC Porto here, they could snatch a point.
