Portuguese giants FC Porto are looking to avoid a fourth straight loss when they visit Anderlecht in Europa League on Match Day 5. Unbeaten in the competition, Anderlecht will, on their part, be having counter prayers, and below we have the preview and prediction.
Form definitely favors the hosts. Anderlecht are one of the six teams yet to taste defeat in the competition. They suffered a late heartbreak in the last round, drawing 1-1 with Rigas, but return on a two-game winning run.
In those two matches, they scored 11 times. Anderlecht have faced Porto twice before and stayed unbeaten.
It is 24 years since these teams last met, with Porto losing in Belgium. They return to Anderlecht without much promise after winning just once in the opening four Match Days.
However, their biggest concern for now, will be the three-match losing run they carry here. That streak started with a 2-1 loss to leaders Lazio on Match Day 4.
It was Porto’s second loss in the Europa League after their opening defeat to Bodo/Glimt. Ahead of this game, Porto lost 2-1 to Moreirense in the Portuguese Cup.
Being winless in their last five away Europa League matches, Porto should be really worried here. A win against Young Boys in 2019 is their only away victory in 13 Europa League matches.
