On Thursday, starting at 20:00 pm, the FC Porto – Feyenoord duel will take place in the 6th round of Group G of the Europa League.
The Group G fight is an open one. At this moment, FC Porto is placed in second place in the group, with 7 points won in the first 5 matches, while Feyenoord is the “red lantern”, just 2 lengths behind the Portuguese. In this context, both Porto and Feyenoord keep important chances of qualification in the next phase of the competition. However, in such a situation where there is no room for talks, we expect the difference in value between the players of the two teams to be received.
FC Porto has, by far, a lot more consistent than the Dutch. Lusitans have both superior individual values and high experience at European level compared to Feyenoord. We consider that in such a situation, in which the stake is particularly important, the superior experience of the hosts could make the difference. In addition, Porto will also benefit from its own arena, the fans of the “blue” being recognized for the pressure they put on the opposing teams.

FC Porto (4-4-2): Marchesin – Telles, Marcano, Pepe, Manafa – Corona, Pereira, Uribe, Otavio – Marega, Luis;
