Santa Clara vs Porto Prediction & Betting Tips - Liga Portugal
by Kennedy Kechula in Liga Portugal Predictions
FC Porto and Santa Clara will face off in São Miguel on Friday in the second week of the Primeira Liga. Both teams started the season with wins, sending promoted Santa Clara top of the table. Let’s have a look at the preview and a prediction of the match.
Santa Clara had a dream return to the Primeira Liga after a season in the second tier. Marking a fine comeback, they thrashed Estoril 4-1 to open their campaign with a statement victory. The win extended their unbeaten run to seven competitive matches.
It was also a continuation of their impressive preseason form. Strength in defence highlighted their one-year stay in the second tier as they finished top to earn promotion. Santa Clara will hope to bring the same to the topflight in 2024/25.
FC Porto will present a big test to Santa Clara’s early season ambitions. The Portuguese giants are seeking their own rise after a dismal league campaign in 2023/24. This match presents a chance to bag a third win in as many matches this season.
The visitors started off with a 4-3 win against Sporting in the Super Cup then followed on by beating 10-man Gil Vicente 3-0. These matches came off the back of a preseason in which Porto were very attacking. It gives the indication we may have a high-scoring encounter here.
Being unbeaten in the last five meetings with Santa Clara further tips Porto as the favorites coming into this game. In their most recent meeting, Porto won 2-1 on their way to claiming the Portuguese Cup last season.

Our Santa Clara vs Porto Prediction
Porto started the season in good scoring form and will be keen to extend that against Santa Clara. Seven goals in their opening two matches of the season will pump them up.
Wenderson Galeno is responsible for three of the goals and also scored once in last season’s win against Santa Clara. With such form, Porto only need to work on their defence, having conceded three in their opening two games.
Santa Clara scored in each of the last three matches against Porto and will target the same here. Our prediction for Santa Clara v Porto is for Porto to win and over 2.5 goals.
