Porto Vs Man City Prediction
With a flawless start to the season under their belt, Porto will have renewed confidence going into Tuesday’s clash. However, the Dragons haven’t been tested by any of Portugal’s finest yet and their injury list will likely hinder their chances. Therefore, we are predicting Man City – who have far too much quality up top – to leave the Estadio Do Dragao with all three points.
Prediction: Porto 1-3 Man City
