Porto will look to boost their challenge for the Primeira Liga title on Sunday evening as they visit Farense.
Farense have been inconsistent of late in the Primeira LigaThe home team’s recent form in the Portuguese top flight has been inconsistent, as they have won just two of their previous seven matches in the Primera Liga. Last time out, they recorded a 3-1 win at Casa Pia.
Despite their unconvincing recent form in the Primeira Liga, Farense are in seventh place in the table, 12 points adrift of the European spots, and eight points clear of the league's bottom three.
Farense have been relatively difficult to beat on home soil in the Portuguese top-flight, as they have lost just one of their previous five league games at the Estadio de Sao Luis.
Their recent home matches in the league have been tight and low-scoring affairs, with under 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five home outings.
Porto looking to extend unbeaten recordThe visitor's recent form in the Primeira Liga has been strong, as Sergio Conceicao’s team are unbeaten in their last four league games. The undefeated league includes three wins and one draw.
A solid defence is one of the main factors in their recent good league form, as they have conceded just one goal in their previous four matches.
Porto is currently in third place in the Primeira Liga table, five points adrift of league leaders Sporting CP.
The visitors have failed to win in their last two away games in the Primeira Liga. However, they have won ten of their previous 13 matches on their travels in the Portuguese top-flight.
Their recent outings in the Primeira Liga away from home have been relatively low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in five of their last seven away matches.
What am I backing?Porto has been in excellent form lately in the Portuguese top flight, and I am backing the visitors to continue their recent strong league form.
