FC Porto, champion and sole leader of the I Liga, will host Benfica on September 20, in a classic match for the seventh round of the championship. The other classic at home for Porto will be against Sporting, scheduled for November 29, corresponding to the 12th round of the competition.
The Portuguese Professional Football League (LPFP) was the entity responsible for announcing the fixtures for the matches. These encounters are traditionally known as the "classics" of Portuguese football, pitting the three big clubs of the country against each other.
The announcement of the fixtures allows fans and teams to start planning the sporting season. The matches between FC Porto, Benfica and Sporting are always considered of great importance in the context of the Portuguese League.
