From this season, only eight teams enter the competition, as opposed to the previous iterations which included a group stage and 36 teams.

Despite the unpopular decision which saw Sergio Conceicao depart as manager over the summer, new head coach Vitor Bruno has made an impressive start, and that continued with a 5-0 victory over AVS on the road on Monday.

That has extended their recent run to five wins in six matches – with the only exception being the 3-3 draw with Manchester United in the Europa League, which they arguably also should have won.

A defeat to Sporting Lisbon at the end of August remains the only thing separating the two clubs at the top of the Primeira Liga, as Porto have won all of their other eight matches in the league so far.

Bruno’s side also got back on track in Europe last midweek, claiming a 2-0 victory over Hoffenheim after dropping five points in their opening two games.

This will be Porto’s second domestic cup match of the season, and is almost certainly set to be a tougher test than the victory over Sintrense in the Taca de Portugal, but they will still be big favourites.

An encounter with Estoril is also on the horizon at the weekend before two huge games heading into the international break, as Porto will go to Lazio and Benfica in two crucial matches over two competitions.

Moreirense provide the first challenge before then but Porto will be hugely confident having won all previous 14 home matches against their upcoming opponents.

Young manager Cesar Peixoto has picked up where Rui Borges left off last season, as Moreirense qualified for this competition by sneaking into Portugal’s top six in the previous campaign.

Despite narrowly missing out on Europe, it was still an excellent achievement, and the Green and Whites are backing up those performances again, currently occupying seventh position.

A 2-0 victory at Boavista at the weekend keeps them in the hunt for Europe again, sitting just three points off those spots at present, despite going five matches without a win between late August and late September.

However, their only other cup match so far was slightly underwhelming, as they limped over the line against third-tier Santarem 2-1, needing to come from behind to win.

The Taca da Liga is the one major trophy Moreirense have won though, doing so against all odds in 2017, beating Porto in the group stage, Benfica in the semi-finals and Sporting Braga in the final, so the small section of away fans will be dreaming when they head here.

Porto vs. Moreirense Head to head

In the previous 30 meetings between these two teams, Porto have claimed 22 victories while Moreirense have won two, and they have drawn in six. Moreirense have scored 21 goals and conceded 66 in the process.

Moreirense Team News

Caio Secco was the preferred choice in goal when Moreirense faced Santarem in the Portuguese Cup just over a week ago, so could get the nod again over first-choice Kewin.
