On Saturday, in the match of the ninth round of the Portuguese Primeira Liga, Porto will host Tondela. The forecast for this meeting is presented to your attention.
"Tondela"
The Tondelians managed to rise from the outsider zone to the middle of the standings. In the round before last, Paco Ayestaran's team interrupted a 5-match series of defeats, snatching a strong-willed victory over Famalikan (3:2) in the end, taking advantage of the numerical advantage. After that, Tondela also beat Belenenses on the road (2:0). Last Saturday, the Golden Greens defeated Kamasha in the cup match (2:1), scoring the winning goal in the last minutes of the second half.
Porto
It's not easy for the Dragons to fight on two fronts, but so far everything is fine with them. Porto did not break down after a crushing home defeat against Liverpool (1:5), defeating Pasos de Ferreira at home (2:1), which allowed to reduce the gap from the leading Benfica to only one point. Last week Sergio Conceicau's team warmed up in the Portuguese Cup over Sintrense (5-0), and on Tuesday they got the most important victory in the Champions League at home over Milan (1-0).
