FC Porto are a team on a good run. This fixture will be FC Porto’s 21st away game, and shall play against an English club in a European competition. However, they haven’t ever been able to win such a fixture, and if Porto wins this one, it will be a first for them to win against an English side.
In terms of injuries, Porto’s centre back Iván Marcano and goalkeeper Mouhamed Mbaye are both out injured with a cruciate ligament rupture.
As for Manchester City, they have many players missing through injuries and CoVID crisis. After Cristiano Ronaldo got tested for being Covid positive, all other Portuguese players including Bernardo Silva, Joao Cancelo, and Ruben Dias got tested – and the results came as negative.
However, in terms of injuries, as we said, several are injured.
“Mendy will be three to four weeks, Laporte we expect sooner. I don’t know how much but maybe in one week or 10 days he could be ready,” said Man City head coach Pep Guardiola.
“Gabriel has a quad injury in front of his leg and I think we will have to be calm and cautious. He is still not on the field training. We struggled a lot in the beginning, for the lack of preparation and amount of absences but even with that we are still alive.
“We are not able to play 90 minutes in a high consistency but I have very good news in terms of Bernardo [Silva] coming back, Phil [Foden] playing good, Riyad [Mahrez] was outstanding today, Rodri maintained an incredible level from the beginning so we are satisfied so far with the situation we have.
Manchester City are a big team who are falling short this season. They have not done so well in the league but will know that a win over FC Porto will change their fortunes and give them a shot at winning the Champions League.
