Following the opening round of the group matches FC Porto are number three on zero points, while Club Bruges have three points as number two.

Challenging for the title might be a bit of a long shot when FC Porto enter the Champions League this season. However, they make a tough opponent for anyone and qualifying for the knockout phase is within their reach.

Club Bruges got their campaign off to a good start with a little surprising win. They might be able to catch FC Porto on the back foot, as the Belgians can lean back and let the home side take the initiative.

FC Porto scored 2.3 goals on average in their past ten matches, hitting the target 23 times. They conceded eight goals, an average of 0.8 and pulled off five clean sheets.

Club Bruges are brimming with confidence in front of goal before the upcoming away match in the Champions League, as they can show off very handsome numbers from their previous ten games. The visitors scored 2.1 times on average per match, for a total of 21 goals. They also let in seven goals, leaving an average of 0.7 per match. They fought their way to five clean sheets.

FC Porto vs Club Bruges Prediction

FC Porto added two wins to their account in their three most recent outings, as they beat Gil Vicente by 0-2. Their next match left them empty-handed in 2-1 defeat against Atletico Madrid, followed up by a 3-0 win against Chaves. In their last six Champions League home matches, FC Porto have two wins, while they've drawn one and lost three. They scored five and conceded 11 goals.

In their last three matches, Club Bruges first beat Cercle Bruges 4-0, then Bayer Leverkusen by 1-0 and finally RFC Seraing by 0-2. Club Bruges, meanwhile, won twice, while they've drawn one and lost three in their last six away in the Champions League.

Neither Club Bruges nor FC Porto score many goals, but they are decent at keeping things tight at the back, and we don't see a goal fest happening at Estadio do Dragao.
