FC Porto won the Portugal Primeira Liga by 1 point over Benfica last season.
They scored 70 goals in 30 games and conceded just 14 goals.
Vitoria Guimaraes finished 9th, 38 points behind Porto.
Guimaraes scored 36 goals in 30 games and conceded 47.
Porto Striker Jackson Martinez has scored 5 goals in 5 starts (more than Guimaraes combined total so far this season) and it’s very difficult to see anything other than a comfortable Porto win.
Guimaraes have made a reasonable start to the season however they face a side who score more than 2 goals per game on average and concede less than 0.5 goals per game.
From a betting perspective, over 3.5 goals at 11/8 offers value given Porto’s high scoring and Guimaraes’ poor defensive record.
