On Sunday, September 15, Porto will host Farense at the Estadio do Dragao in a crucial match for the home team, especially following their recent loss to Sporting Lisbon.
The defeat to their title rivals will have hurt. The unpleasant feeling has lingered longer than usual since it occurred before an international break.
This weekend, Farense will face the formidable challenge of Porto, having lost all four matches so far this season.
As part of our latest Primeira Liga betting tips, we present our prediction for the Porto vs. Farense match.
Porto has won all three league matches this season by a margin of two or more goals.
Farense has lost all four league matches so far, with the last two defeats coming by a margin of two or more goals.
Porto has recorded a clean sheet in three of their four league matches this season.
Porto has been firm at home this season, while Farense has struggled in every match. They have yet to score an away goal this season, and with Porto having kept two clean sheets in their two home games, it seems unlikely that Farense will find the net here. Another easy victory for the home side is anticipated.
Home: 1/7 (1.14) – 87.5%
Draw: 8/1 (9.00) – 11.1%
Away: 14/1 (15.00) – 6.7%
As expected, Porto is the firm favorite for this match, and anything less than a convincing home victory would be surprising. Ladbrokes has set the odds for a Porto win at 1/7, while a victory for Farense is priced at 14/1. The draw, which would be an excellent result for the visitors, is listed at 8/1.

Porto’s history against Farense further supports the expectation of a big win for the hosts this Sunday afternoon. They have never lost to Farense and have won their last eight encounters. The previous time Farense managed to avoid defeat against Porto was in 2000.
Porto began the season strongly before their loss to Sporting, particularly given the departure of their star striker to Bournemouth in the closing weeks of the transfer window. Several players have risen to the occasion since Evanilson’s exit, and they will be eager to show Sporting that they are still in the contest by securing a significant win on Sunday.
Predicted lineup: Costa (GK), Fernandes, Pedro, Perez, Galen o, Varela, Sousa, Pepe, Gonzalez, Jaime, Omorodion.
Farense’s latest promotion to the Primeira Liga occurred in 2023, and they had a solid first season back in the top division, finishing 10th. However, they seem to be grappling with a significant case of second-season syndrome. Unless they start accumulating points quickly, relegation may be on the horizon.
Predicted lineup: Velho (GK), Morais, Jorge, Africo, Pastor, Neto, Barbosa, Falcao, Millan, Tomane, Escribano.
Samu Omorodion seemed poised to join Chelsea throughout the summer transfer window. However, after his move to London fell through, he transferred to Porto. The former Atletico player has a significant reputation and has been responsible for stepping into Evanilson’s role.
Omorodion spent last season on loan at Alaves in La Liga, scoring eight goals across all competitions. He will need to surpass that total this season, but he possesses all the qualities to achieve it.
