Team News

The hosts are going to be without goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen and midfielder Gavi through injury.

Porto are going to be without Samuel Portugal, Ivan Marcano, Gabriel Veron and Ivan Jaime, who are all in the treatment room.

Joao Felix to score anytime @ 15/8

After starting on the bench in Barcelona’s draw with Rayo Vallecano in La Liga at the weekend, Joao Felix could come into the starting lineup against Porto. And with his Benfica connections, he will be fired up to take on their rivals.

Felix has not had the best goalscoring return this campaign with just one goal in 11 league appearances, but he does have two Champions League goals in four appearances this term.

Those goals came in the 5-0 thumping of Royal Antwerp back in September, so it has been a while since he found the back of the net on the European stage. This is a run he will look to end in midweek and we’re backing him to get back among the goals.

Both teams to score @ 4/5

Barcelona may have won the reverse fixture back in Porto 1-0, but the Portuguese outfit will head into this meeting an improved side. They have won their last two Champions League games on the bounce, both against Royal Antwerp, and they have scored six goals in the process.

With both teams level on nine points in Group H, this match will have huge ramifications for how the table will end up at the conclusion of the group stage. Porto will be just as hungry as the hosts in Tuesday’s battle and we do fancy them to get on the scoresheet this time, which could disrupt Xavi’s men.
