This game has been long awaited by supporters of both teams, as it's the premier Primeira Liga game of the season. Both Porto and Marítimo are ready for a good start to their league adventure.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Porto form and stats

Porto could celebrate like crazy last season after winning the Primeira Liga. Home supporters are hoping for more of the same this season. In the home games here at Estádio Do Dragão they witnessed 15 victories, 2 draws and 0 defeats. In total the trophy was secured after W29 - D4 - L1 from 34 games.

With the first game of the season soon underway, it's time to look at the results from the Porto friendly games in pre-season: Porto played four friendlies, won 4, drew 0 and lost 0. If you are really into statistics you might appreciate knowing that Porto scored 8 goals and conceded 2 in these four games.

Marítimo form and stats

Let's have a look at how Marítimo performed last season in the Primeira Liga: They landed a 10th position in the league table after playing out 9 victories, 11 draws and 14 defeats. In total they scored 39 and conceded 44 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 5 - drew 5 and lost 7 with 20/27 goals scored/conceded.

As mentioned above, the bookmakers do not believe the away team will get anything from this match. Checking Marítimo's match history for similar games we find 4 matches. The home team won 4 of these as expected, 1 of them by at least two goals. Marítimo managed 0 draws and 0 surprise wins.

It's finally time to play a game of importance again as a long period of training has passed. Marítimo have played a number of friendly games in this period, resulting in 1 win, 1 draw and 1 defeats from three fixtures.

Head 2 Head

Porto-Marítimo H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Porto seven wins, Marítimo one win, two draws. five of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5). The matches between these clubs have sometimes been a bit rough, having seen 6 red cards from the last ten encounters.
