Seeking to pick up their first win of the new Primeira Liga campaign, newly-promoted Rio Ave square off against Porto at the Estadio dos Arcos on Sunday.
The Portuguese champions, on the other hand, head into the weekend on a blistering run of 11 consecutive victories across all competitions and will look to march on in the same vein.
We say: Rio Ave 0-3 Porto
Porto have flown out of the blocks this season, winning each of their opening three games. The Dragoes next task tees them up against a floundering Rio Ave side and we predict they will extend their dominance over the Vilacondenses.
