Having suffered a blip recent, FC Porto have hardly made headway in the Champions League over the past few years, failing to reach the latter stages of the competition. But these ones seem hell-bent on rewriting history this season.

And interestingly, they are well on the right path to realizing this ambition. With a place in the last-eight of the CL already pinned down, the Portuguese outfit will fancy their chances of going all the way here, to pull off a repeat of 2004’s unprecedented title success.

FC Porto vs Chelsea Team News

What can we make of this FC Porto team? Daring, resolute and resilient. These ones are leaving no stone unturned in their bid to enjoy a good run in the Champions League this term. Perhaps, they might even clinch the highly-coveted title come May!

Call me crazy, but the Dragons are very capable of bringing this dream into reality. Sergio Conceicao may not have the most sophisticated squad on his hands, but the experienced gaffer has somehow found a winning formula with his pretty-much average players.

Ticking really well on the pitch, the Blue and Whites combine brilliantly with their eye-catching football to win football games. Though Porto are enduring a torrid Liga NOS campaign, they are more than making up for these struggles on the European scene.

In the previous round of the Champions League, FC Porto turned ‘giant-killers’ – bending over backwards to send Juventus crashing from the tournament. A game that will live in their supporters’ memories for some time to come, the Dragons saw off the Italians on away goals.

Since that amazing triumph, Conceicao’s men have embarked on a three-game winning streak, and will be heading into this CL fixture on the back of this excellent record. They will be buzzing to get on the pitch to face off Chelsea.

Leaving the media at a loss for words in the Round-of-16, Chelsea delivered a five-star performance to secure victory over Atletico Madrid – dumping the Spanish side out of Europe. Under the tutelage of Thomas Tuchel, they have been nothing short of sensational.

However, the Blues were exposed on the last matchday, succumbing to an embarrassing 5-2 defeat to newly-promoted West Brom, putting their top-four hopes in jeopardy. They will be looking to return to winning ways with a positive result in Seville.

Injured or Suspended Players

FC Porto: Francisco Meixedo and Ivan Marcano.
Chelsea: Tammy Abraham and Charly Musonda Jr.

FC Porto vs Chelsea Predictions

When Porto successfully dumped Juventus out of the Champions League in the previous round, Sergio Oliveira proved to be the difference on that fateful night, grabbing a well-deserved brace. But now, the midfielder is out with an injury.

As if this isn’t already enough problem to deal with, Mehdi Taremi has also been ruled out of this contest. With this handicap, the scales have been tipped slightly in Chelsea’s favor. The Blues should take advantage of their opposition’s woes to register a first-leg triumph.
