Best Tip: Porto to win

Studying the bookmakers' odds and collated statistics regarding the two teams ahead of this Liga NOS match, a bet on win / draw / win for Porto to win on home turf is what we would suggest. We predict they'll be too strong for Boavista, and head-to-head (H2H) records show they have a track record of doing so. It could be a tighter than we expect, but Porto winning is the bet come Saturday night.
