Porto surpass last season’s away wins already this year | OneFootball

This Tuesday marks one year since Vítor Bruno was removed from the helm of FC Porto, following the 1-2 defeat in Barcelos that left the club in third place in the league, four points behind Sporting and one behind Benfica. Twelve months later, the reality in the Dragon’s kingdom has changed almost completely: FC Porto now leads this season’s edition alone, after a historic first half.

The 30 points earned away from home – the maximum possible, the result of ten wins in as many away matches – do not constitute a club record, but are already enough to, for example, surpass the record of 2024/25, a season in which FC Porto managed only nine away victories.

The comparison with the same period last year is enlightening: in the first 18 rounds of the previous season, there were only four wins (one draw and four losses), even having played one fewer away game. The improvement is also evident in the numbers under the guidance of Francesco Farioli: 21 goals scored and only two conceded away from the Dragão, compared to 16 scored and 12 conceded last season.
