THE PREDICTION
Maritimo come into this on the back of a slender 1-0 victory at home to Estoril in their most recent outing, about ten days ago. The home team have now lost just one of their last four Primeira Liga matches as they sit inside the bottom two and the automatic relegation places. They now face a Porto side that, under the management of Sergio Conceicao, come into this on the back of winning the Taca da Liga, by defeating Sporting CP in the final at the weekend. That was their fifth successive win in all competitions and they are unbeaten in their last 16 matches. Despite Maritimo’s improvement, Porto should win this one relatively easily.
