I don't think there is a clear favourite in this tie but I am excited for this game, I think being away first is a bonus that we have to take advantage of. They are first in their league so we have to be wary of the threat. I can see us sitting deep and hitting on the break. As long we get an away goal and keep them close. I predict a 2-1 loss or 1-1 which would be an ok result to take back home. It would be great to advance and you never know with a bit of luck in the draw go further.

It used to be a bonus when Rafa was manager. We knew we go and draw 0-0 or win 0-1

Our defence is unpredictable. So it could finish 4-4.

Porto are a good side this and shouldn't be underestimated.

Who gives a shyte about a Bluenose's opinion

At least I'm not a bitter looking for a home

I would be happy with a draw then do them at anfield in the traditional way

Indeed.

Well said TR

Meanwhile, 1-2

If we had the consistency to take a draw being confident of reaping the advantage at home I'd settle for that. However this season we've been as good and bad at home and away, so I'd still be nervous if we have to win it from level pegging at home. I'd love a two or three goal cushion at Anfield, but Porto aren't to be taken lightly, they're a decent side with attacking flair and ability. Personally I feel the tie will be won or lost at midfield, as their defence isn't any better than ours, indeed now with VvD steadying things up a bit we may have the advantage there. Interesting game, which looks like I'm going to miss unfortunately...Valentine's day!!!

You're the 2nd one that's said that.
