Porto's Clash With Famalicao - Goal Fest on the Cards?

The Estadio do Dragao is set to host a mouthwatering clash between two of the Primeira Liga’s most potent attacking forces on Saturday, as FC Porto welcome FC Famalicao. With the home side’s Evanilson and the visitors’ Jhonder Cadiz both tied on 11 goals apiece this season, fans could be treated to a goal-fest in this highly-anticipated encounter.

Porto, though, will be keen to return to winning ways after suffering a disappointing 2-1 home defeat to Vitoria Guimaraes in their previous outing. Despite dominating the shot count, Sergio Conceicao’s men were unable to make their superiority count, and they will be desperate to make amends against Famalicao.

The visitors, on the other hand, head into the clash buoyed by a narrow 3-2 victory over FC Vizela, with Cadiz likely to have played a pivotal role in that triumph. The Colombian marksman has been in scintillating form this term, and he will fancy his chances of adding to his tally against a Porto backline that has been somewhat unconvincing at times.

However, the Dragons boast the best defensive record in the Primeira Liga, having conceded just 21 goals in 28 matches thus far. Their sturdy rearguard could prove to be the deciding factor in this clash of the goal-getters, as they aim to keep Cadiz and his teammates at bay.

At the other end of the pitch, Evanilson will be relishing the prospect of going head-to-head with his scoring rival. The Brazilian has been a revelation for Porto this season, with his 11 goals playing a crucial role in the club’s pursuit of silverware on multiple fronts.

With so much firepower on display, neutrals could be in for a treat as these two free-scoring sides lock horns in what promises to be an enthralling encounter. Will Evanilson and Cadiz take centre stage and produce a masterclass in clinical finishing? Or will the respective defences stand firm and force the attacking talents to show another side to their game?

One thing is for certain – this clash between two of the Primeira Liga’s most potent attacking forces is not to be missed. Buckle up and get ready for what could be a goal-laden spectacle at the Estadio do Dragao.
