Santa Clara have managed just one win in the last six outings against Porto. Porto are likely to get a comfortable victory even if the visitors are unbeaten in five.

Total goals over 2.5

Santa Clara have also been lowered goals despite being unbeaten in recent weeks. However, this is a fixture that has traditionally been among the goals with the last three meetings producing more than 2.5 goals quite comfortably.
