Nacional Look Value on the Asian Handicap

Nacional +1.5 look like great value on the Asian Handicap at 1.95 considering a one-goal loss for the outsiders would still result in a return. We are expecting them to be competitive against Porto.

Nacional Won 2-0 in Teams’ Last Meeting

FC Porto have triumphed in back-to-back games. The latest was on the road where Boavista were beaten 2-1 at Estadio do Bessa XXI. Martin Anselmi's team boasted 58% possession and had seven shots on target, with Rodrigo Mora and Ivan Marcano scoring one goal each.

Nacional drew 3-3 in their previous game. This was at home at Estadio da Madeira against Rio Ave. The White and Black had 44% possession and four shots on goal, with Andre Sousa, Leonardo Santos and Konstantinos Kostoulas (own goal) finding the net.

Nacional triumphed in the last clash between the pair. Landing a 2-0 home win when playing Porto at Estadio da Madeira. In the past 3 H2H games, we’ve seen two Porto wins and one Nacional triumph.
