On Friday Dec 3rd, Porto and Portimonense will play a match in Portimão in a meeting of these two closely matched Primeira Liga teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 14 degrees, which will be a great treat for players. Portimonense is fresh off their 3-0 shutout win against Famalicão. Alexandre Penetra scored the first goal for Portimonense on an own goal in the 23rd minute, then Carlinhos added another in the 39th minute on a feed from Shoya Nakajima In the end, Famalicão couldn’t muster any offence and Portimonense ran away with the shutout win. Portimonense should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 17 points in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, 1st placed Porto, recorded a 2-1 win against Vitória SC. Marcus Edwards scored the first goal for Vitória SC in the 36th minute from the penalty spot, then Luis Díaz got the equalizer for Porto in the 39th minute on a feed from Mateus Uribe But fortunately they were able to complete the comaback victory in the 60th minute on a goal by Evanilson. Porto looks to continue their winning ways, having 8 wins in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season. Last season Porto won the head to head battle with 2 wins.
Luis Díaz has been on a hot streak lately. In the last five games, hes scored 5 goals for Porto. Portimonense is having problems scoring lately. Their top scorers, Lucas Possignolo and Pedro Sá each only have 1 goal in their last five.
