FC Porto find themselves top of Liga Portugal by five points after a great start to the season

FC Porto are currently top of the Liga Portugal table, sitting on 43 points from 15 league games.

The Dragons have won all of their last five games across all competitions, scoring 14 goals and keeping two clean sheets in those matches.

Porto have the best home and away record in Liga Portugal, picking up 19 points at home and 24 points away so far this campaign. In the league, the Dragons have won 14 of their 15 games played, drawing one. 21-year-old Samu Omorodion is the club's leading goalscorer this season, scoring 16 goals in 21 appearances.

Francesco Farioli is the club's manager, and he was appointed in the summer. Since being appointed, his team have only lost one game, which was against Sean Dyche's Nottingham Forest in the UEFA Europa League.

In the competition, the Portuguese outfit are currently sitting eighth in the table, inside the quarter-finals qualification spots by one point.

Their next game is against AFS, who are bottom of the Liga Portugal table, with only four points.

On January 14th, Porto host Jose Mourinho's Benfica, who are currently unbeaten in their last nine. The game is in the Taça de Portugal quarter-final, with the clash guaranteed to be an exciting one.

Only three attackers at Porto are above the age of 25, highlighting the young but high-quality front line the side has. The Blues and Whites have an average squad age of 25 years old, and have the second-highest squad value in Liga Portugal, behind Sporting CP.
