Insights:
  • Porto have the fewest conceded goals (0) at home in Primeira Liga

These are busy days for the home side, as they had a match only four days ago in the Champions League. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Atlético Madrid.

Porto form and stats

Perfect Primeira Liga season at home so far for Porto 2 wins from 2 appearances.

Porto travelled for their previous game, a trip to Atlético Madrid that ended 0-0. Diogo Costa, who guards the goal, was given a match rating of 7.2 out of 10 in that game. Costa stopped the opponent with two saves and topped it up with a clean sheet.

Preceding that game was the away draw at Sporting CP that finished 1-1.

Moreirense form and stats

Things could have gone better for Moreirense in their Primeira Liga away matches, but 2 points from 2 games is all right. Moreirense has drawn their two previous away games.

Moreirense's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Famalicao that finished 2-2. Attacker Felipe Pires got a player rating of 7.42 in the game. "Man of the match" Pires served one assist and hit three key passes. Mateus Pasinato had red hot gloves after the game against Famalicao, shaping the outcome of the game with six saves made. As mentioned above, Moreirense drew the match against Famalicao. Manager J. Oliveira Nunes Henriques brought on André Luis to rescue the draw from a losing position and it worked.

Preceding that game, the 1-1 draw paying a visit to Belenenses.

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

3 goals so far away for Moreirense, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 3. All from 2 league matches away.

Head 2 Head

Head to head statistics (for the prior ten meetings): Porto won seven games, three matches ended with a tie and Moreirense managed zero wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: seven / three
