Porto Preview – Can Porto win eight on trot?
Despite winning their last seven matches on the trot in the Portuguese top flight, Porto still find themselves neck-and-neck with 3rd placed Benfica as they prepare for this mouthwatering clash in the Primeira Liga at their Estádio Do Dragão on Friday night.
Porto also possess a decent looking home record which stands at 6-0-1 18/8 which includes just the one defeat to Maritimo in a 3-2 loss but since then, Porto have won their last five home matches on the trot, scoring 13 goals and conceding just four in reply and keeping three clean sheets in the process.
Porto have a knack of finding a way to win especially at home and this is underlined by the fact that they’ve won 14 of their last 16 matches on home soil which includes a 3-2 win over Benfica back in February of last year.
Benfica Preview – Can Benfica stay the pace?
Having won five of their last six matches overall in the Primeira Liga, the signs suggest that Benfica will also be in confident mood ahead of this vital clash at the top of the Portuguese domestic top flight as they look to pull away from Porto.
Recent wins against Maritimo, Pacos Ferreira, Gil Vicente, Portimonense and Tondela have helped sustain Benfica’s bid for another domestic title, while an away record of 4-1-1 13/6 also looks a reasonable return on the road so far this season.
However, Benfica have found themselves on the losing side in each of the previous four meetings against Porto and this Friday night’s clash looks another tough one for the visitors.
