Team News

Nacional
Porto
  • Joel Tagueu has already been registered in the league and could actually feature from the outset on Friday.
  • Zé Vítor is back available and will probably start at the heart of the defense.
  • Rodrigo Mora had another delightful display last time around and will likely earn another start here.
  • Nico González reached a milestone of bookings and will miss out, paving the way for Alan Varela to start at the middle of the park.

Prediction

  • Despite a good display, Nacional left Vila do Conde without any points last time out. In their last four home games they've picked up seven points, losing only to Benfica, which should worry FC Porto.
  • FC Porto have greatly improved their defensive process conceding only one goal in their last six matches across all competitions. In their last game of 2024 they had a wonderful display in the Invicta Derby, beating Boavista 4-0.
  • Playing at home, Nacional could be a tricky opponent, but it's hard to imagine them stopping an in-form FC Porto from taking all three points.
