Team News

Vitoria de Guimaraes
Porto
  • Tomás Ribeiro will push for a start at the heart of the defense after scoring against SC Braga last time out.
  • Nuno Santos and Samu will be in competition to start at the middle of the park.
  • João Mário had a wonderful performance last time around and will probably start at the right-hand side of the defense.
  • Samu scored the winner against SC Farense and wouldn't be a surprise if he started upfront here.

Prediction

  • Vitória SC continued their fine start to the season by beating their biggest rivals SC Braga 2-0 away from home. This was a historic result as the Vimaranenses hadn't won at Pedreira for seven years and proved that Rui Borges' men can do something unforgettable in 2024/25.
  • FC Porto struggled to overcome SC Farense, despite creating plenty of chances. The Dragons came up against an inspired Ricardo Velho, who made 10 saves. Nevertheless, Vítor Bruno's men won the match and remain in the hunt for first place.
  • Playing in Guimarães isn't easy for any team in the league and, despite FC Porto's good form, it's expected that the Dragons will struggle to beat Vitória SC. Indeed, it wouldn't be surprising if the Vimaranenses picked up a point or three from this match.
