Looks like there’s a bit more than just a kick‑off to chew over before Porto host Alverca.
1
Porto squad hits the training ground
The first team will be back on the pitch on Tuesday, gearing up for the Alverca clash – a clear sign the club are treating it as a proper preparation session rather than a walk‑over.

Porto have already put tickets on sale for the Alverca game (and the Arouca fixture too), so expect the stands to be buzzing before the whistle even blows.

Borja Sainz shines in last season’s 3‑0 win
When Porto last met Alverca on 22 Dec 2025, Borja Sainz bagged a brace as the hosts ran out 3‑0 winners – a reminder of the firepower they can unleash.

Porto defender Bednarek has started treatment but the club says he’s unlikely to feature against Alverca, leaving a hole in the back line for the upcoming game.
