Moreirense will host Porto at the Parque Joaquim de Almeida Freitas on Saturday in another round of the 2024-25 Primeira Liga campaign. The home side are enjoying yet another strong season and sit seventh in the league table with 20 points from 14 matches as they continue their push for continental football.

However, they suffered a disappointing 1-0 defeat to Nacional in their last match, falling behind early after the restart and could have no major complaints about the result after an uncharacteristically blunt showing in attack.

Porto seem to have found their feet in recent games after a slight dip in form last month. They picked up a comfortable 2-0 win over Estrela Amadora last time out, with former Barcelona youngster Nico Gonzalez opening the scoring in the first half before Goncalo Borges came off the bench to seal the points late in the contest.

The visitors are firmly in the title race as they sit second in the table with 34 points from 14 matches. They are just two points behind leaders Sporting and could leapfrog them with maximum points in the north of Portugal on Saturday.


Moreirense vs Porto Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

  • There have been 32 meetings between Moreirense and Porto. The home side have won just three of those games while the visitors have won 23 times, with their other six contests ending in draws.
  • The two teams last faced off in a cup clash last month which the hosts won 2-1 to snap a 15-game winless run in this fixture.
  • The visitors have scored at least one goal in each of their last 13 games in this fixture.
  • The Dragons have the second-best offensive and defensive records in the Primeira Liga this season with 33 goals scored and nine conceded.

Moreirense vs Porto Prediction

Moreirense have lost two of their last three games and four of their last seven. They are, however, one of just four teams yet to taste defeat on home turf in the Portuguese top flight this season and will fancy their chances of a positive result this weekend.

Porto are on a run of back-to-back victories and are undefeated in their last five matches. They have, however, struggled for results on the road of late and may have to settle for a point here.

Prediction: Moreirense 1-1 Porto
