Porto vs Moreirense team news
Porto
Porto picked up a big win last time out at home to Braga. Fabio Cardoso opened the scoring for the hosts after just twelve minutes and an early second-half penalty from Evanilson ended any hopes of a Braga comeback.
Zaidu Sanusi and Mehdi Taremi are away on international duty, while Ivan Marcano and Gabriel Veron remain sidelined through injury.
Predicted Lineup: Costa (GK), Pepe, Wendell, Cardoso, Mário, González, Varela, Galeno, Aquino, Evanilson & Conceição
Moreirense
Moreirense put in a good performance away at Estoril to secure all three points. Pedro Aparicio broke the deadlock on the half-hour mark and soon after, Marcelo fired Moreirense into a two-goal lead. A third goal from Alan ended any faint hopes of a draw for the home side in the seventy-fourth minute but Estoril did score a consolation goal in the final minute to make the scoreline 3-1.
Moreirense have no fresh injury concerns or suspended players ahead of the trip to Porto and Kobamelo Kodisang is available for selection after he missed out on South Africa's AFCON 2023 squad.
Predicted Lineup: Kewin (GK), Marcelo, Maracás, Amador, Pinto, Aparício, Alan, Franco, Ismael, Camacho & Kodisang

Player to Watch: Evanilson
Porto are doing well to remain in the title race considering their lack of goals up front this season.
Evanilson leads the way with five league goals from twelve appearances but the Brazilian was only a bit part player in the 2022/23 campaign, netting seven goals in eighteen starts.
With star striker Taremi only scoring three times in fifteen matches so far and the likes of Borges and Aquino yet to score, Evanilson has stood out as the only reliable source of goals this season and we're backing the Brazilian to fire Porto to three points against Moreirense this weekend.
Evanilson is in good form right now with six goals in his last ten appearances in all competitions, including a recent hat trick against Estoril in the Taca de Portugal.
