FC Porto vs Portimonense – When FC Porto hosts Portimonense on Sunday night for the 26th round of the Primeira Liga, they will be looking to get their winning streak back on track.
The final two games before the international break were disappointing goalless ties for the squad coached by Sergio Conceicao.
The first one, against Inter Milan, resulted in their elimination from the UEFA Champions League, and the second, against Sporting Braga, put even more of a stop to their championship defense. Only a miracle can help FC Porto capture the trophy in May as they are currently ten points behind leaders Benfica.
Sergio Conceicao’s team still has a lot to play for, though, as they are only two points ahead of Braga in third place, and only the top two spots in the league guarantee a spot in the Champions’ League group stage for the following year.
In this matchup against Portimonense, who have recently been struggling, Porto will have a great opportunity to recover.
Following a run of four straight league losses, the visitors fell to the 14th spot in the Primeira Liga standings. It is extremely difficult to maintain optimism about Paulo Sergio’s team’s chances going into the journey to Estadio Do Dragao given their lack of success thus far.
