FC Porto and VfB Stuttgart will clash in the Europa League Round of 16 on Thursday evening at the Estádio do Dragão. Porto will look to end Stuttgart’s continental journey after winning the first leg 2-1. The Portuguese were quick off the mark last week, taking a 2-goal lead before VfB Stuttgart responded in the 40th minute through Deniz Undav. Francesco Farioli will want his team to maintain the same energy and get the job done.
VfB Stuttgart, on the other side of the grass, will know that the job now gets more complicated against the Portuguese giants on the road. Sebastian Hoeness' men will rue their lack of concentration in the first leg, which led to two quick goals for Porto. These goals could be decisive if they don’t bring their A-game to defeat FC Porto by any margin possible. They must not crumble under pressure on Thursday.

Our Porto vs Stuttgart Prediction
FC Porto is the exciting +133 betting favorite. They’ve enjoyed a stellar domestic campaign, sitting at the top of the Portuguese league with 69 points. Interestingly, Porto won all five of their home matches in this competition, scoring over 1.5 goals on each occasion. However, VfB Stuttgart will come to town with one of the sharpest attacks, having scored 15 goals in the league phase, 2 more than Porto. They’ll be led by Moroccan striker Bilal El Khannouss, who has scored 5 Europa League goals this season. Deniz Undav is also having a solid campaign, sitting second in the German Bundesliga scoring charts with 16 goals. These two should help them get a goal or two against Porto. We predict a 2-2 draw.
Our prediction for FC Porto vs VfB Stuttgart: Over 2.5 goals.
