Team News

Royal Antwerp
Porto
  • Royal Antwerp could be without as many as seven players for this Group H clash.
  • Sergio Conceicao will be without the services of Ivan Marcano, Gabriel Veron, Zaidu Sanusi and Pepe for Wednesday's trip to Belgium.

Prediction

  • The hosts have now lost their opening two Champions League matches, having fallen to a narrow defeat against Shakhtar Donetsk last time out.
  • Antwerp bounced back from that loss with a 4-1 victory over Eupen, but were beaten by Sporting Charleroi on Saturday evening and have fallen to sixth place in First Division A.
  • After victory against Shakhtar Donetsk in their opening match, FC Porto were beaten at home to Barcelona three weeks ago, and sit second in Group H on goal difference.
  • This will be the first competitive meeting between these two sides.
  • Porto have won their two domestic matches since that defeat without conceding a goal, and will fancy their chances here against a struggling Antwerp side.
