The Right Picks and Best Betting Tips for Porto vs Arouca
Half-Time Porto
The Dragons were the first team to score in 8 of their last 10 matches, usually, by the end of the first half Porto is ahead on the scoreboard. In addition, the last six times the two teams have met, the home team has won all six games, all by two goals or more. The most recent meeting was just a fortnight ago, Arouca conceded 5 goals and scored just 1. So we expect the Dragons to secure victory in the first half of this match.
Over 2.5 Goals
in the previous year, these teams met on three occasions, two of which ended with the same result, 5-1 in favour of Porto. 7 of their last 8 meetings had more than 2.5 goals. In the current season Arouca played matches that had a lot of goals, in 4 of their last 5 matchups there were three or more goals in the final score. We expect this to be an exciting game with plenty of goals.
BTTS
Both the host and the visitor scored in almost all of their recent matches, in fact in 5 of Arouca’s last 7 matches, they conceded and scored at least one goal. In this Portuguese cup match, we are likely to see some unusual players, which will increase the chances of the two teams scoring.
Porto vs Arouca Preview: Early Chance For Revenge
Porto
Sergio Conceicao’s team lost the streak of 4 consecutive victories and drew in their last match against Casa Pia. In this duel, the Dragons came up against a team that was completely locked in their own half. Porto dominated all the stats but still couldn’t open the scoring.
With this draw, they lost second place and moved two points further away from the leader. Participating in four competitions simultaneously will be a bit exhausting for the Dragons, so we will see how far they will advance in each of them.
Arouca
The Arouquenses will be unlucky to meet the only team that has beaten them in their last seven matches. In that period they won four times and drew two games. So far, Arouca’s season has not been very impressive, but it has been good.
In the previous matchday, the Arouquenses turned the page of their defeat and won at home, where they beat Estoril 2-0. With that win, they reached 22 points and moved closer to the European competition places.
