Manchester City vs Porto Betting Tips
After the 5-2 loss at home against Leicester, Manchester City are slowly getting back to their best. Their best form is actually one of the scariest in Europe too. Unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 games, City take on Portuguese Champions FC Porto at the Etihad next. Porto started their Liga NOS defence with a bang, winning their opening 2 games and scoring 8 goals in those 2 wins. But a loss at home to Maritimo and then a draw against Sporting has slowed them down a bit.
On a tactical front, both Manchester City and Porto are really similar sides. Both like to play attacking football, going for the win irrespective of the goals they concede and thus end up in high-margin fixtures occasionally. This has led to most of their recent games seeing more than 2.5 goals and both the sides scoring at least a goal apiece.
Talking about finding a clear winner in this one, City are decades ahead of Porto in terms of capabilities. Thus with odds of 1.25, it's worthless to bet on a Manchester City Win as it is extremely certain and so shall not produce decent profits.
Thus, turning the attention to the number of goals in this one, the best betting opportunity is 'Over 2.5 goals'. There is no doubt irrespective of being a one-sided or an equal battle, this game should see more than a couple of goals for sure. In fact, Manchester City alone should score a few. An ACCA could also be created with a 'Manchester City Win' as it's an utmost certainty.
Manchester City vs Porto Correct Score Predictions
City should start like they mean business. Porto are a good side but they are not close to the English giants from the blue half of Manchester. The hosts should run riot and destroy the opposition in a free-flowing attacking display of footballing action. A 3-0 win for Manchester City seems the ideal start to the Champions League campaign.
