Betting Tip: Under 2.5 Goals
Portimonense returns to Estadio Municipal de Portimao aiming to improve their Primeira Liga survival chances. They recently climbed out of the bottom three despite tough form.
They’ve managed just 23 points from 24 league games, with 13 defeats and only six victories. Two wins in January gave hope, but their form hasn’t been consistent since.
After defeats to Arouca and Estrela Amadora, they drew 1-1 with Vitoria de Guimaraes and suffered a 4-0 loss to Benfica.
In their latest match against Vizela, they secured a goalless draw despite playing with 10 men for the final 20 minutes.
While the draw moved them out of the drop zone, it was against the league’s bottom side, leaving room for improvement. They’re now desperate to turn things around in their upcoming match.
Portimonense faces a tough task against Porto, who are in fine form, winning four of their last five matches.
Porto had a disappointing Primeira Liga campaign this season, currently sitting third, seven points behind leaders Sporting Lisbon.
They’ve already dropped points on eight occasions this season, more than in previous years.
Porto bounced back from a draw with a 2-1 win against Santa Clara, securing a place in the Taca de Portugal semi-final.
In their recent match against Benfica, Porto secured a historic 5-0 victory, narrowing the gap to six points in the race for the Champions League spot.
With their title hopes fading, Porto aims to maintain momentum before their crucial second leg against Arsenal in London next week.
