Porto always do a professional job at home in European competitions. They do have a tendency to execute their jobs to perfection which sadly Athletico Madrid will be the victims for today. Madrid have been plagued with all sorts of troubles of late and their injury time equaliser at Valencia on Sunday merely highlighted how awful they are at times this season. They have been horrendous at the back and Valencia was guilty of not putting the game to bed before the eightieeth minute mark. In fact, Athletico have conceded 9 goals in their last three games.

Porto snapped their two game losing streak on Saturday when they defeated their arch rivals Sporting Lisbon 1-0 to consolidate their position in the Super Liga. This season alone, Porto have reeled in four successive home wins, keeping three clean sheets in their home matches thus far which further illustrates how tough the Spanish side will be going up against today. Go for the Portuguese champions to roll over a very sorrowful figure of Athletico.

Pick: Porto @1.98
