On Monday, Porto secured a 3-0 home victory against Gil Vicente with goals from Samu, Fernandes, and William Gomes. This win puts Francesco Farioli's men back in the lead of the Portuguese league, a position they haven't held since the 2021/2022 season. On Thursday, the Dragons turn their attention back to their unfinished Europa League campaign, where a win against the already eliminated Scottish side Rangers would see Porto qualify directly for the round of 16 and avoid the February qualifying round.
Porto has been undefeated since December 4th, their last defeat coming against Vitória Guimarães. The streak of games without losing is 13, but it came to an end when in the Czech Republic Porto, with a last-gasp goal from Gul, tied Plzeň, a bland draw because Samu missed a penalty and Porto played with one more man for the entire second half.
Rangers have little at stake, but domestically they have recovered from a discouraging start to the season; Danny Rohl led his side to an eight-game winning streak in all competitions. However, the traditional Scottish team still failed to win in any of their last seven European away matches.

Our Porto vs Rangers Prediction
In the past, Rangers have visited Porto three times and have never managed to beat them in Portugal. In betting, the odds have continued to shift towards Porto, who are favored at odds of -425.
Spanish striker Borja Sainz, 24, valued at €22.8 million, has yet to score in 2026; if he does on Thursday, it could be after the 60th minute, as four of his last six goals came in the final half hour of matches.
Our prediciton for Porto vs Rangers is: Porto -1.5.
