They haven’t lost yet, and they’re a side with penetration and real ability on the ball. They’re a team who force you to defend the width of the pitch, and they boast individual match winners. ” Barça weaknesses:“We’ve identified some weaknesses; every team has them. We have to be strong and stop them from getting into the areas they like. They have bags of quality, so we’re going to have to dig in. But we also need to go at them and score goals. Barça aren’t going to have it all their own way against us. ” Barcelona and Porto's previous UCL meetingsAs I mentioned right at the start of this feed, Porto and Barcelona haven’t met in the Champions League since 1999/2000. That season, Barça beat the Portuguese side home and away in the group stage.
Porto vs. Barcelona: Preview, date, time, live stream and how to watch Champions League match | DAZN News USThe top two teams in Group H of the Champions League meet on Wednesday as Barcelona travel to face FC Porto. Barcelona have yet to taste defeat this season, winning seven games and drawing twice in all competitions. Their three most recent matches have been close however, with two one-goal victories bookending a 2-2 draw. Meanwhile, Porto are coming off a loss over the weekend — their first of the young league campaign.
Previously, the Catalans also beat Porto 3-0 in the 1993/94 Champions League semi-finals, which were played over a single game. The sides also met in Europe’s top club tournament back when it was still the European Cup. That was in the 1985/86 second round, and again it was Barça who prevailed, winning on away goals despite a 3-1 second-leg defeat. Under Englishman Terry Venables, Barça went on to reach the final that year - but suffered penalty shootout heartbreak against Steaua Bucharest. William AllenPosted at: 14:21EDT04/10/2023 First meeting in over a decadeThis will be Porto and Barcelona’s first meeting since they faced off in the UEFA Super Cup 12 years ago.
