Team News

Porto
Casa Pia AC
  • Iván Marcano and Otávio reached a milestone of bookings and won't feature here. Fábio Cardoso and Eustáquio might have a chance to start as a result.
  • On the other hand, Uribe is back available and ready to start in the middle of the park.
  • Either Wendell or Zaidu will feature at left-back.
  • Romário Baró, who was not expected to start anyway, will miss out as he cannot face his parent club.
  • Taira and João Nunes should return to the starting XI here after coming off the bench last time out.

Prediction

  • FC Porto defeated FC Arouca 1-0, which allowed them to keep the pace in the title race. That was their eighth consecutive win, but seven of those have been by a single goal and they were far from convincing in most of them.
  • Casa Pia AC conceded a late goal last time out, which almost ended their dream of European football next season. They're on a six-match winless run and will look to get back to winning ways at the Estádio do Dragão.
  • In the reverse fixture, the visitors were able to hold their opponents to a goalless draw despite being reduced to 10 men. They should be a tough opponent for FC Porto but at the end of the day the Dragons should find a way to win this.
