Preview

Match preview

Academico Viseu host league leaders FC Porto in round 4 of the Primeira Liga. The hosts enter the fixture seeking their first league victory of the campaign, having recorded two draws and one defeat across their opening three fixtures (0-2-1), leaving them in 12th place with two points.

In stark contrast, FC Porto have enjoyed a flawless start to the season, claiming maximum points from their first three matches. The Dragons sit top of the table on nine points with a +6 goal difference, having produced identical 2-0 victories against Alverca, Rio Ave, and Arouca while maintaining a perfect defensive record with three consecutive clean sheets.
