Estoril vs FC Porto tips and predictions

Liga Portugal match offers big price against Estoril glory

You might want to stop what you're doing if you think the visitors are nailed on.

The hosts go into the match with 12 home wins from their last 20. For sure, it will be a shock to see Estoril get this done but they aren't out of contention.

Estoril must be prepared for half-chances against the run of play. If the hosts really fancy their chances they will need to build on their recent performances. These home players are playing some decent stuff and they can be a problem. They scored at least once in 19 of their recent 20 matches coupled with some first-class defending. At the back they have kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 9 home games.

When tested away from home FC Porto have actually conceded at least once in 5 of their last 6 matches. To surprise the naysayers, the underdogs must not hesitate in front of goal.

Estoril have won 2 of the last 3 fixtures between these sides. Their next meeting is a perfect scenario for them to build on the head-to-head. They have won before, maybe they can do the impossible this time around.

So, if the home team is to pull off the upset, it is essential that they take their chances. Their finishing has been clinical in some of their recent showings. It could make the difference for them between a perfectly respectable loss and embarrassment.

Despite the vehement favouritism for FC Porto it will be great to see Estoril catch them off-guard. It isn't that obvious but the Yes BTTS bet is the speculative side bet.
