A 3-1 win at Estoril last time out means that Moreirense have lost just one of their previous 12 games in the Primeira Liga. The game was another high-scoring game for the visitors, as three of their last four Primeira Liga matches have produced over 3.5 goals.
Moreirense has been strong on home soil of late in the Primeira Liga, as they are unbeaten in six games in the Portuguese top-flight, having recorded four wins and two draws.
Their recent Primeira Liga away games have been relatively low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five games.
What am I backing?Porto are in good form while Moreirense have been difficult to beat in the Primeira Liga. However, the bet I am backing is a narrow home victory.
