Porto travel to Lazio for the second leg of the knockout play-off of the Europa League. The previous leg between the two teams ended up in a 2-1 win for Porto courtesy of a brace from Toni Martinez while Mattia Zaccagni scored the solitary goal for Lazio. The hosts are placed sixth in Serie A and will seek redemption in the Europa League. They come into the game with a 1-1 draw with Udinese. Lazio have had over 2.5 goals in five out of their last six matches and have been playing quite a few high scoring games. They have struggled to keep things tight defensively as well which could hurt them at the home leg especially since they come into the fixture already trailing. As a matter of fact, Lazio have just one clean sheet in their last four matches.

Porto come into the game with a 1-0 win over Moreirense in the Portuguese Primeira Division. They are at the top of their domestic league at the moment and look like firm favourites for domestic success. Porto also have had over 2.5 goals in eleven out of their last twelve matches and have just two clean sheets in their last ten matches. The two teams have not shied away from playing out in an attacking style of play which just guarantees goals in this game.
