AVS v Porto: title push meets relegation fight | OneFootball

League leaders Porto visit bottom club AVS in Liga Portugal on Sunday, 10 May 2026, with the game set for Estádio Clube Desportivo das Aves in Vila das Aves and points vital at both ends of the table.

Porto have dominated this match-up, winning all three previous league meetings, including a 5-0 victory on their last trip to this stadium. The visitors arrive top, while AVS sit 18th in the relegation places.

AVS have shown resilience lately with draws against Sporting CP and Vitória S.C., plus a 2-1 win at Nacional last time out. Porto's league form is strong: unbeaten across the last five matchdays and on a three-match winning run.

Francesco Farioli is without several attackers and defenders for Porto, with Samu Aghehowa, Luuk de Jong, Nehuén Pérez and Martim Fernandes all out injured. Aghehowa is the club's leading league scorer this season, so the burden may shift towards William and Victor Froholdt, with service from creators Gabri Veiga and Alberto Costa.

On season trends, Porto look robust: 20 clean sheets and only 15 conceded, with 54% possession and 84.71% passing accuracy. They also produce more, with 337 total shots and a shot accuracy of 50.45%. AVS have struggled, scoring 24 and conceding 66, with 40% possession and 73.74% pass completion. The visitors could target AVS's leaky defence, while the hosts may seek to frustrate and play for moments.

A win would take Porto to 88 points and strengthen their grip on first place. Three points for AVS would move them to 20 and keep their survival hopes alive, though they would remain in the relegation zone.
