ℹ️ Team News: Casa Pia

Clau Mendes (sprain) and Kiki (unknown injury) won’t be available for Casa Pia gaffer João Pereira.

We are thinking that Os Gansos (The Geese) look set to kick off with a 3-4-3 system in the match and select Patrick Sequeira, Joao Goulart, Jose Fonte, Duplexe Tchamba, Gaizka Larrazabal, Miguel Sousa, Andrian Kraev, Leonardo Lelo, Jeremy Livolant, Cassiano and Pablo.

📰 Team News: Porto

Porto manager Martín Anselmi has multiple availability issues to deal with. Vasco Sousa (Broken fibula) and Marko Grujić (Heel injury) are not ready for selection.

We’re of the thinking that Dragões seem most likely to utilise a 3-4-3 lineup, going with Diogo Costa, Ze Pedro, Stephen Eustaquio, Ivan Marcano, Joao Mario, Alan Varela, Fabio Vieira, Francisco Moura, Pepe, Samuel Aghehowa and Rodrigo Mora.

🔮 Prediction

We’re of the view that Casa Pia may not find it easy to score against this Porto side who we think will likely manage to get a goal of their own in a winning performance.

We’re therefore expecting a hard-fought 0-1 advantage for Porto when the referee blows for full-time.

Should be an interesting one.
