ℹ️ Team News: Porto

Vasco Sousa (Broken fibula) and Marko Grujić (Heel injury) will be missing for Porto manager Martín Anselmi.

In all likelihood, Dragões look set to use a 3-4-3 system for this game, utilising Diogo Costa, Ze Pedro, Stephen Eustaquio, Ivan Marcano, Joao Mario, Alan Varela, Fabio Vieira, Francisco Moura, Pepe, Deniz Guel and Rodrigo Mora.

📋 Team News: Famalicão

Due to a mostly available group, there is just the sole fitness worry for the Famalicão manager Hugo Oliveira to be concerned with. Ivan Zlobin (Kidney problems) misses out for this game.

There’s a good chance that Famalicenses will likely begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 lineup, starting Lazar Carevic, Calegari, Enea Mihaj, Justin De Haas, Rafa Soares, Tommie van de Looi, Mirko Topic, Sorriso, Gustavo Sa, Oscar Aranda and Vaclav Sejk.

🧠 Prediction

In our opinion, Porto will probably get a lot of shots on goal and make them count.

However, Famalicão will not find it easy to find the back of the net but we do think it’s quite likely that they will be hitting back at some stage here, too.

We reckon that it will be a controlled 3-1 winning margin for Porto come full-time.
