Stats for this game

Matchup Liverpool VS FC Porto

Liverpool have set the direction

The strongest Liverpool markers came in successive European campaigns. On 14 February 2018, Liverpool won 5-0 at FC Porto in the Champions League round of 16; on 17 April 2019, Liverpool returned to win 4-1 in the quarter-final second leg. The 28 September 2021 group-stage meeting brought another 5-1 Liverpool victory in Porto. These dated scorelines show an advantage that has travelled across knockout and group-stage settings through decisive margins.

Porto need a different answer

FC Porto have also contributed results that keep the pairing from being described only through large wins. The clubs drew 0-0 in Porto on 8 March 2001 and 1-1 there on 18 September 2007, while Liverpool won 2-0 in the return match on 24 November 2021. Those results underline the central test: Porto need to turn a close scoreline into a victory, while Liverpool have several emphatic results to draw upon. The durable interest lies in whether Porto can interrupt Liverpool’s established advantage or another dated margin strengthens it.
