Porto - Paços de Ferreira betting tips and odds

With the odds set at 1.44 for a home win, Porto winning is clearly the most likely outcome in this matchup. Bigger upsets have happened, of course, but we wouldn’t expect anything but a decisive home win.

The situation is crystal clear from the current perspective. Given the strength of the home team and the fact Paços de Ferreira are given 8.50 betting odds to win, a conclusion is not difficult to reach. Anything but a home win would be an incredible surprise.

Last round saw Porto take an early lead against Gil Vicente and maintain the momentum up until that last whistle. The match-up was highly favourable, of course, but the squad might be able to keep that same momentum going against Paços de Ferreira.

The latest 2:1 home win by Paços de Ferreira was quite predictable – it went down the way most betting predictions said it would. They secured an early lead against Nacional and carried it all the way to the final 2:1 result.

Porto have a strong recent history in terms of scoring as hosts. They bagged 6 goals in their previous three home games.

Our confidence that Paços de Ferreira will manage to hold their composure in an away game is shaky. They have over 5 concessions on record in their latest 3 visiting games alone.

Porto are currently 10 points behind the table leaders. There’s still plenty of time, however, and they seem poised to take another three points this Sunday. The Champions League dream seems like a reality at this point but with 10 points behind the leaders, a league title is still within their grasp.

Paços de Ferreira’s number 5th table position represents a strong first half of the season, but there’s plenty of time for this to change. This upcoming showdown is not going to be easy by any measure, so maintaining their position is more important than moving up at the moment.

With a loss to Paços de Ferreira on the record, the home team’s status of clear favourites is brought into question. They lost a Primeira Liga match earlier in the season, which came as a surprise to bookies and punters alike.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 1.92 odds offered at Betway.
