The task for Porto is to secure top spot while Atletico Madrid are aiming to hold on to their Europa League place as both teams meet in their final Champions League Group B fixture. However, Atletico continue to look out of sorts and could be in for a difficult time in Portugal.
Although qualification to the round of 16 has been settled in Group B, there is still much to play for. Sitting just one point off the pace, Porto will be looking to go above leaders Club Brugge.
After suffering defeats in their opening two matches in the Champions League, Porto picked up their form in time to progress from the group. They have won their last three matches in the competition, claiming a 4-0 victory over Club Brugge last time out with Mehdi Taremi netting a brace.
Porto's overall form in recent weeks has been solid with just one defeat in their last nine matches across all competition. Sergio Conceicao’s men claimed six wins in that run but were held to a 1-1 draw by Santa Clara in a Primeira Liga fixture last Saturday.
It has been a difficult campaign for Atletico Madrid this season as they have struggled both domestically and in Europe. Diego Simeone’s men have crashed out of the Champions League but will be keen to secure a place in the Europa League.
Having begun their Champions League campaign with a 2-1 win over FC Porto, it has been all downhill for Atletico Madrid since. They are winless in their last four matches in the competition and were held to a 2-2 draw by Bayer Leverkusen last time out.
Among the problems for Atletico Madrid this season is the loss of their trademark defensive solidity. They are without a clean sheet in their last four matches across all competitions and head into Tuesday’s clash off the back of a 3-2 defeat to Cadiz in a La Liga fixture last Saturday.
