Porto, Recent FormLast time out, Porto went away feeling content with a 1-0 home win against Rio Ave They achieved 59% possession in that match and had 14 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Rio Ave's tally of 11 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
Manager Sérgio Conceição will be delighted with his team's performances recently, with them having scored 12 goals in their last 6 games whilst conceding only 2. They are showing that they are not easy to beat with a defensive record of 4 clean sheets in their last 6 matches. Few teams have managed to keep Dragões away from their goal, having scored in all but 2 of their games this season.
They are showing impressive league form with a run of 6 straight wins in a row and are also unbeaten in their last 11 games.
When it comes to home matches at Estádio do Dragão, Mehdi Taremi will be feeling confident about finding the net again, with 6 league goals for Porto in their last 6 home games.
Gil Vicente, Recent FormGil Vicente will have been quite satisfied taking a point from their last match against Vizela, which ran out a 1-1 draw. In that game they had 62% possession and managed 16 attempts on goal, with 6 on target, compared to Vizela who had 13 attempts and 4 on target.
It's fair to say that manager Daniel Sousa will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 6 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. On the road, they are showing great consistency in finding the back of the net, having scored in 5 of their last 6 away games. Having conceded at least 1 goal in 9 out of 10 away games this season, they are not making it easy for themselves to pick up valuable points on their travels.
They're experiencing a relativley poor spell of form on the road, having lost 4 of their last 6 away games despite notching up a couple of wins.
With 5 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Gil Vicente, Fran Navarro will be looking to add more goals against Porto in this match.
Last time these two teams met in the league it resulted in an unsurprising 0-2 win for Porto.
Porto have scored in each of their last 14 games at home in the league against Gilistas. Gil Vicente have struggled to break down the Dragões defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 2 times in their last 5 meetings.
On home soil Porto have managed to keep their visitors at bay for a very long time in this league fixture, denying Gil Vicente a win against them for 14 games in a row.

Fábio Cardoso (Calf), Otávio da Silva Monteiro (Thigh), Francisco Evanilson (Thigh), Wenderson Galeno (Muscle), Francisco Meixedo (Ligament), Wendell Nascimento Borges (Muscle) and Gabriel Veron (Ankle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
