Preview: SC Farense vs. Porto - prediction, team news, lineups
Feb 15, 2025
Fighting for their survival in the Primeira Liga, Farense are set to host giants Porto at Estadio de Sao Luis this Sunday.
The Lions of Faro have struggled so far in 2025, though they may sense an unlikely opportunity to pick up points against the lacklustre Dragoes.
Match preview
Toze Marreco's Farense are still waiting for their first win of the calendar year, and having lost three and drawn two of their league matches in 2025, they currently find themselves in the relegation zone ahead of this weekend.
Last time out, the hosts were beaten 2-0 on their own turf by 14th-placed Nacional, and given that the Lions of Faro last won a home match back in November, fans have every right to be worried about a visit from even a dysfunctional Porto.
To make matters worse, Toze's side have scored the fewest times of any club in the division, and with just 13 goals to their name from 21 games to date, the boss will have to rely on his shaky defence if his team are to take anything from Sunday's clash.
That being said, the gap to AVS in the relegation playoff spot is just three points, and with the safety of 15th only five points in front, Farense can still save their season if they can rediscover the resilience that saw them lose just one of their eight league fixtures between November and January.
