Match Facts
This is the first competitive meeting between Royal Antwerp and FC Porto. Antwerp's only previous meeting with Portuguese opposition was against Marítimo in the 1993-94 UEFA Cup, the Belgian side progressing to the second round 4-2 on aggregate.
FC Porto have won five of their last six meetings with Belgian opponents in all competitions. They faced Club Brugge in the UEFA Champions League group stages last season, losing 4-0 at home but winning by the same scoreline in Belgium.
FC Porto have won each of their last three away games in the group stage of the UEFA Champions League, their longest such run since October 2007 (3). Sérgio Conceição’s side have scored at least three goals in each of the victories in this run: 3-0 v Bayer Leverkusen, 4-0 v Club Brugge and 3-1 v Shakhtar Donetsk.
Royal Antwerp conceded the most goals of any side in the opening two matchdays in the UEFA Champions League this season (8). Indeed, only Crvena Zvezda (22) and Young Boys (18) faced more shots on target than the Belgian side (17) across their first two games this term.
Across the first two matchdays in the UEFA Champions League this season, only Salzburg’s starting XI (21y 259d) had a younger average age than that of Royal Antwerp (24y 232d).
FC Porto have already used 21 different players in the UEFA Champions League this season; the most of any team through the first two matchdays. Indeed, only two outfield players have played every minute across the two games so far (David Carmo and Stephen Eustáquio).
Royal Antwerp were one of only two teams to name the same starting XI on both MD1 and MD2 in the UEFA Champions League this season, along with Crvena Zvezda.
Mehdi Taremi has scored nine goals for FC Porto in the UEFA Champions League, including six since the start of last season. He could become the sixth Porto player to reach double figures for goals in the competition, after Mário Jardel (19), Lucho González (13), Lisandro López (13) Jackson Martínez (12) and Vincent Aboubakar (11).
Arthur Vermeeren assisted both of Royal Antwerp’s goals against Shakhtar Donetsk last time out in the UEFA Champions League. In doing so, he became the youngest player (18y 239d) to assist two goals in a single game in the competition since Mario Balotelli for Internazionale in 2008 (18y 84d v Anorthosis Famagusta).
No FC Porto player has created more chances (3), completed more take-ons (7) or recovered possession (11) more times than João Mário in the UEFA Champions League this season.
