Famalicao and Porto will battle for three points in a Primeira Liga matchday 12 fixture on Saturday.
The home side are coming into the game on the back of a 2-0 defeat away to Benfica in the Taca de Portugal last weekend. Riccieli's 72nd-minute own goal broke the deadlock while Rafa Silva doubled his side's lead in the 77th minute to seal their progress.
Porto, meanwhile, fell to a 2-1 defeat away to Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League. They went ahead through Pepe's opener on the half-hour mark but Joao Cancelo drew the Blaugrana level just two minutes later. The Portugal international turned provider for his compatriot Joao Felix to score the match-winner in the 57th minute.
The Dragons will turn their focus back to the domestic scene, where their last league game saw them claim a 2-1 away victory over Vitoria Guimaraes.
The win left them in third spot with 25 points to their name while Famalicao are seventh, having garnered 16 points from 11 games.
