Looking to maintain their early lead at the top of the Portuguese top-flight campaign, Porto will visit Moreirense on Monday night for the ninth round of fixtures. The two sides are separated by just three places in the table, with the visitors sitting three points clear at the top and Moreirense in fifth. Porto are clear favourites to win, but Vasco Botelho da Costa's side will be feeling confident given that their last win against Porto was at this ground.

The two sides have faced each other ten times in all competitions since 2022. Porto dominated this period, registering eight wins and keeping six clean sheets. One match ended in a draw, while Moreirense won the other encounter, which took place last year on this same pitch. The average number of goals per game was 3.10.
Moreirense team overview
Moreirense avoided relegation with ease in each of the last two seasons, finishing sixth in the 2023-24 campaign and tenth last year.
Os verdes e brancos aim to finish higher in the standings this time around, and have already demonstrated their ambition by winning five of their eight league games so far.
Four of those victories came in front of their fans which is something that provide huge motivation ahead of the clash with league leaders Porto. However, home fans may be concerned by the fact that their team has lost four of their last five matches against Porto at this venue.
Lawrence Ofori will miss Monday’s match due to an adductor problem that has kept him out of the last five games, while Vasco Sousa is suspended for his red card against Nacional.

FC Porto team overview
Having had to watch Sporting (2) and Benfica (1) win the last three league titles, Porto are determined to change that this season.
The board demonstrated their intent in July by signing Francesco Farioli as head coach until 2027, and boy the 36-year-old has certainly delivered.
Porto are yet to lose a league game this season, boasting seven wins and one draw from eight matches. Adding to the excitement, the Dragons have only conceded once in the league, while scoring 19 goals.
While everything looks good in the league, Francesco Farioli’s team will go into Monday's game with low confidence after losing 2:0 to Nottingham Forest in the Europa League last time out.
Luuk de Jong remains out for the visitors due to an inner ligament injury, as does Nehuén Pérez, who has a muscle injury.

Prediction
The hosts have reason to be optimistic, with four of their five wins this season and all four of their victories in the last 28 meetings with Porto coming at this ground. However, they face a Porto side who have won seven of their eight league games this season and are eager to bounce back after losing to Forest in Europe last time out. I am expecting an entertaining game, which may well be won by the visitors at full time.
Three reasons we expect at least three goals in this game
- Three of the last five games of Moreirense ended with over 2.5 goals.
- All the last four league games of Moreirense have produced 3 or more goals.
- Bets on over 2.5 goals won in five of the last six meetings between Moreirense and Porto.
Main prediction -
Over 2.5 goals
