Maritimo vs Porto Prediction
The hosts have scored just three times in their last six games. They are without the influential forward Rodrigo Pinho, who has scored seven of their 18 goals this term.
The visitors have scored two goals in five of their last seven fixtures. They should not face any problems in finding the back of the net against the hosts, who've shipped in 28 goals this term.
They were very disciplined against Juventus and we expect them to produce a similar kind of display in the league against Maritimo.
Porto will end their streak of draws and return to winning ways in this game.
Prediction: Maritimo 1-2 Porto
