  • Competition: UEFA Europa League
  • Date: Thursday, 7th, November 2024
  • Kickoff: 20:00 UK / 21.00 CET
  • Venue: Stadio Olimpico (Rome)

On Thursday, Lazio will seek to stay at the top of the 36-team table as they take on Porto at the Olimpico in an exciting Europa League matchday four contest.

Although they weren’t initially viewed as top contenders for glory, the Roman club has emerged as a pleasant surprise at the start of their Europa League campaign, proudly standing alongside Tottenham and Anderlecht as teams that have taken maximum points from their first three matches. After demolishing Dynamo Kyiv 3-0 and OGC Nice 4-1, Marco Baroni’s high-flying team continued their eye-catching start to the league phase by defeating 10-man Twente with a comfortable 2-0 scoreline at the end of October, and these remarkable triumphs have catapulted them to the top of the standings.

Last season saw Porto, for the first time in seven years, finish outside the top two in the Primeira Liga, forcing them to settle for a spot in UEFA’s second-tier competition this term. While the rivals from Rome were relentless, the Dragons weathered a shaky start to their European campaign, but after a dramatic five-goal loss to Bodo/Glimt and a spectacular 3-3 draw with Man United, Vitor Bruno's side finally tasted victory in the competition by defeating Hoffenheim 2-0 in their last match.

Lazio vs Porto Betting Tips: BTTS

With the advantage of home support and a flawless start to their European journey, Lazio are understandably favored, but Porto are a team capable of causing problems for anyone, so we expect the crowd at the Olimpico to witness an electrifying clash filled with goals. The attacking unit of the Roman club has shone brilliantly in their opening trio of European appearances as they have rattled the net an impressive nine times so far and will strive to maintain their ruthlessness in front of goal to keep their place at the summit of the standings. 

Despite their undeniable attacking force, Biancocelesti have undeniably shed the image of an unyielding defense that had been their hallmark for years, as evidenced by only three shutouts in their 14 matches across all competitions this season. Even though they didn’t have as flashy a start as their Italian opposition, Porto’s attack has proven just as potent as Lazio's, netting at least two goals every time in their opening three Europa League games, which means their defense was the main reason they’re not among the top eight in the league phase of this competition. The two rivals have faced off four times so far, and the Dragons have yet to experience defeat, while both nets have bulged on three occasions in those encounters, so we firmly believe that these two attack-minded teams will deliver an exciting contest.

Lazio team news

After substituting Dele-Bashiru in the first match of the Europa League, Tijjani Noslin was shown a straight red card for an elbow strike, earning a three-match suspension, and the upcoming fixture against Porto will mark the conclusion of his ban.

Experienced center-back Patric missed his team's 2-1 victory over Cagliari on Monday due to minor issues, and as he is unlikely to be risked here, coach Marco Baroni will once again pair Samuel Gigot and Alessio Romagnoli at the heart of the defense.

Porto

Porto team news

Porto will travel to the Italian capital without the long-term injured Ivan Marcano, and with Wendell and Marko Grujic absent from the squad for a month, it’s highly unlikely they will feature in Thursday’s visit.

If there are no fitness concerns, head coach Vitor Bruno might turn to the same side that gave Porto their first European win, comfortably beating Hoffenheim 2-0 at the end of the previous month.
