General perception
Adrian Lopez’s 79th minute goal in the first leg helped Porto revive their chances of progressing.
That belief is completely well-founded when Porto has won all three home matches in the Champions League group stage this season.
Both teams did not prepare well before this important match.
Although they are not two teams that receive much attention in European football, this is considered one of the most evenly matched matches in the 1/8 round of the Champions League.
