Stadion Galgenwaard will host a key Europa League clash on Thursday night as FC Utrecht host FC Porto. The Cathedral Citizens have started their campaign poorly and are awaiting their first point, while the visiting Dragons tasted defeat for the first time in the competition last time out. Here's our prediction for the match.
Utrecht are yet to score a goal in the Europa League this season, and have not won any of their three games in the competition. They lie 35th in the 36-team table after three matches. FC Porto have won two and lost one of their Europa League games, amassing six points and they sit in 15th place in the table.
Domestically, Utrecht lie fifth in the Eredivisie, while FC Porto sit at the top of the Portuguese league table.
Utrecht's last three games have seen them lose 2-0 to SC Freiburg in the Europa League and they were then well-beaten 4-1 away by AZ Alkmaar in the Dutch League. However at the weekend, they earned a 1-0 home win over NEC.
FC Porto's recent form is slightly better than their hosts. After losing 2-0 away to Nottingham Forest in the Europa League, Porto then earned two 2-1 victories, first away to Moreirense and then they beat Braga at home by the same scoreline.

Our Utrecht vs Porto Prediction
Our prediction for the FC Utrecht vs. FC Porto Europa League match is: FC Porto wins.
While Utrecht have performed well domestically, they have had huge issues in Europe this season and have not scored a point or even a goal in their three games so far. They face an FC Porto side whose sole defeat this season came at Nottingham Forest in the last Europa League game. As such, FC Porto's stronger form in Europe, and their rich pedigree, makes them the team to back here.
