Porto kept the pressure on Sporting and Benfica at the top of the Portuguese Primeira Liga with a 3-1 win over Farense last Sunday. They went into halftime with a solid lead thanks to goals from Evanilson and Alan Varela. Although Farense managed to score from the penalty spot through Bruno Duarte, Evanilson doubled down with his second goal to secure Porto's victory.This win extended Porto's unbeaten streak to seven matches in all competitions, highlighting their strong form. Currently, they are third in the league, trailing five points behind Sporting Lisbon, the league leaders.Next up, Porto faces Rio Ave, a team they've dominated in past encounters, with Rio Ave winning only once in their last 20 meetings. Despite a recent draw against Estoril, Rio Ave has been struggling, especially on the road where they haven't won a league game this season. Porto, on the other hand, boasts a strong home record, winning their last eight games at their stadium. They will be without Ivan Marcano due to an injury and missing Zaidu Sanusi and Mehdi Taremi due to international duties. However, Evanilson's recent form, with seven goals in his last four games, makes him a key player for Porto in this matchup. Rio Ave, struggling near the relegation zone, will miss Amine Oudrhiri due to suspension and potentially Andre Pereira due to injury. This makes their challenge against Porto even more daunting.Considering both teams' current form and historical matchups, Porto is favored to win this weekend's clash, maintaining their chase for the league title. 2-0 is minimal but 3-0 or 4-0 are realistic to hapen.

上周日，波尔图以3-1战胜法国人，继续向葡萄牙甲级联赛榜首的体育和本菲卡施压。由于埃万尼森和阿兰·巴雷拉的进球，他们以稳固的领先优势进入半场。尽管法伦塞凭借布鲁诺·杜阿尔特的点球破门，但埃文尼森的第二粒进球帮助波尔图取得了胜利。这场胜利将波尔图在各项赛事中的不败纪录延长至7场，凸显了他们的强大状态。目前，他们在联赛中排名第三，落后联赛领头羊里斯本竞技5分。接下来，波尔图将面对里约大道，这是一支他们在过去的比赛中占据统治地位的球队，里约大道在过去的20场比赛中只赢了一场。尽管最近战平了埃斯托里尔，但里约大道一直在苦苦挣扎，尤其是在他们本赛季一场联赛都没赢的路上。另一方面，波尔图拥有强大的主场战绩，在他们的球场赢得了最近八场比赛。马尔卡诺将因伤缺阵，萨努西和塔雷米也将因国家队任务缺阵。然而，埃万尼森最近的状态，在最近的四场比赛中打入7球，使他成为波尔图在这场比赛中的关键球员。里约大道，挣扎在降级区附近，将失去阿明奥德里因停赛和安德烈佩雷拉可能因伤。这使得他们对波尔图的挑战更加艰巨。考虑到两队目前的状态和历史交手，波尔图很有可能赢得本周末的比赛，继续他们对联赛冠军的追逐。2比0是最小的，但3比0或4比0是现实的。
