Porto will be looking to hold onto first place in the Portuguese top flight when they visit Vizela on Sunday night.
The Dragons are level with second-place Sporting on 38 points but lead the way thanks to their superior goal difference.
Meanwhile, Vizela find themselves tenth in the table – 15 points behind Porto and three points clear of the relegation zone.
Vizela have only managed to win two of their 13 league matches this season, recording seven draws and four losses along the way.
In fact, no team has registered more draws than Vizela in Portugal’s top tier, while only two sides have picked up fewer wins.
Although Vizela have won just one of their past 11 league games, they have only lost one of their previous six home encounters.
It is also worth noting that each of Vizela’s last five home matches have produced under 2.5 goals. For that reason, Sunday’s clash is likely to be a low-scoring affair.
As for Porto, they haven’t lost any of their 14 league matches this season – picking up 12 wins and two draws in the process.
Not only are they the second-highest scorers in the Portuguese top tier, but they also boast the second-best defensive record.
When you look at the bigger picture, Porto are currently enjoying a 42-game unbeaten streak in Primeira Liga – losing just one of their previous 45 games.
Given that Porto head into this game on a nine-match winning streak, it is difficult to envisage anything other than an away win here.
Head-to-head: This is the first top-flight meeting between Vizela and Porto, meaning there are no previous results to assess for this fixture.
Team news: Guilherme Schettine is Vizela’s danger man. The Brazilian forward has bagged five goals in 12 league outings this term.
As for Porto, Luis Diaz is the star of the show. The Colombian has chalked up 13 goals and three assists in 22 appearances across all competitions this season.
Porto will be without injured centre-back Ivan Marcano on Sunday as he continues to recover from surgery.
Although Vizela have given a decent account of themselves this term, Porto should be far too strong for the hosts.
With that in mind, Forebet predicts that Porto will keep a clean sheet en route to overcoming Vizela.
