Porto can clinch a place in the Champions League knockout stages if beating Monaco and are not expected to meet much resistance at Estadio do Dragao.

The visitors are consigned to finishing fourth in Group G and have nothing to play for but pride, which they have shown little of in this season’s competition.

We’re kicking off our Porto vs Monaco betting predictions by snapping up 9/10 for the hosts to win by more than one goal.

A Look At Porto’s Betting Odds

Porto got off to a poor start in this pool when losing 3-1 to Besiktas at this venue, but the Dragons have done a solid job of overcoming that setback.

Vincent Aboubakar bagged a brace when they prevailed 3-0 in Monaco on Matchday 2, before two entertaining encounters with RB Leipzig resulted in a win apiece.

Porto’s 1-1 draw with Besiktas in Istanbul two weeks ago was another action-packed affair, with both teams having chances to snatch victory.

If the hosts can put in one more high-tempo performance here, it should be enough to see off a Monaco team lacking the same hunger and desire to succeed.

Cameroon striker Aboubakar is leading from the front for the Dragons, with nine goals in Portugal’s top flight and three more in this group.

The 25-year-old appeals at 9/4 to open the scoring in our Porto vs Monaco betting tips.

A Look At AS Monaco’s Betting Odds

Even allowing for the sale of several star players, last season’s semi-finalists Monaco have put in a pretty miserable effort this term.

A 4-1 loss to RB Leipzig on Matchday 5 was their third straight defeat at Stade Louis II, with an early own goal and a soft penalty given away summing up the whole campaign as they fell 3-0 down after half an hour.

Bizarrely, Monaco have managed to pick up a couple of away points via 1-1 draws, but two recent Ligue 1 losses to PSG and Nantes may affect their ambition on this occasion.

The visitors are always capable of bagging a goal, though, so 19/10 for a home win and over 3.5 scores in the game takes the eye from the Porto vs Monaco odds.
