FC Porto outline Dragão checks and choreography for Benfica visit | OneFootball

FC Porto have issued matchday guidance for Sunday night’s clássico against Benfica, with tickets sold out and stringent entry checks planned at the Dragão.

According to O Jogo, gates open at 18:30. Limited extra availability could arise only if season-ticket seats are released. The club will verify ticket transferability at the turnstiles to curb misuse of members-only benefits, including children and junior categories, aimed at deterring touting and stopping away fans from entering home areas.

There will be five screening points on the west side near Alameda Shopping, three on the east by the metro, and one dedicated checkpoint for Benfica supporters.

Public transport, metro, train and buses, will be reinforced. Fans are urged to arrive early, with the Friendzone entertainment starting at 15:00. A large choreography is being prepared for the teams’ entrance.

The club also asks supporters not to use pyrotechnics inside the stadium, warning of fines and the risk of games being ordered behind closed doors.
