Real Betis host Porto in the Champions League. This is a continental cup tie between two teams from different leagues and different countries. Their recent form is clearly different. The hosts just thrashed their league opponent 5-2 on 11 Oct, while Porto just won 2-1 in the Portuguese league on 10 Oct and are unbeaten in 4 straight. Real Betis are unbeaten in 5 straight in all competitions, their attack scores consistently, but their defence still shows weaknesses given the goals conceded in several matches. Meanwhile Porto are on a winning run of 4 straight in their own league and score more frequently, especially at the back where they have conceded only 4 goals in 8 league matches in Portugal. This game should open up early because both teams tend to attack more than defend. If Porto score first, Real Betis will have to push forward to fight back, which would change the shape of the game immediately. But if the hosts score first, Porto also have an attack that can respond quickly.
