Primeira Liga action continues on Sunday evening as Arouca takes on table-toppers Porto at Estádio Municipal de Arouca.
Porto come into Sunday's fixture still boasting a 100% winning record this season, and will be confident of extending their superb form in a fixture they have dominated in recent years.
While Arouca have made a mixed start to their season, the hosts will take heart from a narrow road win in their most recent Primeira Liga match at Nacional.

Arouca team overview
Arouca come into Sunday's Primeira Liga contest in winning form after a hard-fought 2:1 win against Nacional last weekend. In a bad-tempered contest where both sides were reduced to ten men, Espen Van Ee's 89th minute goal secured a first away win of the season for Vasco Seabra´s side.
The Wolves had endured a four-game winless stretch before last weekend's much-needed away win. Arouca sit tenth in the Primeira Liga with eight points collected from six games played.
Head coach Seabra has a fully fit squad available this weekend. The hosts are likely to name the same XI that picked up victory against Nacional.

FC Porto team overview
Porto returns to Primeira Liga action after a dramatic 1:0 win against Salzburg in the Europa League on Thursday. William Gomes´s goal in the final minute of stoppage time secured a narrow road victory for Francesco Farioli´s men.
A superb run of form has seen the visitors win each of their first seven matches this season, including each of their first six league fixtures.
Porto have been strong defensively this season. The visitors kept clean sheets in all but one of seven games played this season and in four of their last six matches against Arouca.
Considering their excellent form, a comfortable away win seems likely this weekend. Farioli´s side covered a -1AH in four of their last seven wins, and in both of their last two matches against Arouca.
Head coach Farioli has a strong squad available this weekend. Nehuén Pérez is the only confirmed absentee for the league leaders.
