FC Porto vs Manchester United – Preview

Form

Hosts FC Porto have been in sparkling form in the Primeira Liga. Vítor Bruno’s side has played seven league games so far, winning six and losing one. With 18 points on the board, Porto is sitting in second place in the league rankings. Porto claimed a comfortable 4-0 win over Arouca in their last league outing on Sunday, September 29.

Porto, however, succumbed to a shock defeat in their UEFA Europa League opener. Despite drawing first blood, the Portuguese outfit lost 3-2 to Norwegian side Bodo/Glimt.

Manchester United, meanwhile, has been all over the place in the Premier League. Ten Hag’s men have amassed only seven points from their first six league matches — their joint-worst return in history. Such unsatisfactory showings see them languishing in 13th place in the standings.

The Red Devils suffered a brutal 3-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur at Old Trafford in their last league outing on Sunday. The 20-time English champions also failed to deliver in the Europa League, drawing 1-1 with FC Twente at Old Trafford on Matchday 1. Underwhelming results have put Ten Hag under heavy scrutiny, and he needs to deliver over the coming weeks to stay in the hot seat.
