Team News

Porto
Hoffenheim
  • FC Porto remain without Ivan Marcano, Zaidu Sanusi and Fran Navarro here.
  • Florian Grillitsch and Dennis Geiger will both be assessed for Hoffenheim.
  • Pavel Kaderabek, Ozan Kabak, Grischa Promel, Ihlas Bebou and David Jurasek miss out.

Prediction

  • Porto head into the welcome of Hoffenheim unbeaten in four in all competitions, winning three, with the blip on the record book a 3-3 draw with Manchester United earlier this month.
  • Hoffenheim have turned their fortunes around in recent outings, winning two of their last three following a five-match winless run.
  • That said, a trip to Portugal may be a step too far for the German outfit.
