FC Porto vs Tondela Predictions

• Porto have won each of their last 13 meetings with Tondela, winning by two clear goals in seven of the last nine.
• Porto won nine of their last ten games in 2021-22 and scored 23 goals with only four conceded in that time.
• Tondela were relegated last season and banned from registering new players in the summer.

Porto should pummel troubled Tondela

Porto completed the domestic double when they beat Tondela in the cup final last May and now, two months later, they should clinch the Super Cup against the same – but weaker opponents.

The Auriverdes were relegated when they couldn’t hold on to two leads to beat Boavista at home on the final day of the league season. They finished with the worst defensive record in the top flight and worse was then to come over the summer.

A transfer ban was upheld by CAS meaning they cannot register new players, which has left coach Nuno Campos with very few options ahead of this game. Tondela have lost each of their last 13 meetings with the Dragons, with seven of their last nine head-to-head defeats being by more than just a solitary goal.

Comfortable win on cards for Conceicao’s men

That seems the best place to find a bet with a decent payout for this cup final with around 1/2 on offer for Porto to cover a -1 handicap again – as they did at Jamor in May when 3-1 victors. Winning by multiple-goal margins was became commonplace for Porto in the final weeks of last season when they scored 20 goals and conceded just once in their final eight league games, so the form looks good for a comfortable win for the favourites.

Porto have strengthened in defence with the summer addition of ex-Braga colossus David Carmo and can record a convincing 3-0 victory on Saturday.
