FC Porto sent an observer to Manchester to watch Manchester City's game, which will be the Dragons' first opponent in the 2026/27 edition of the Champions League. The observer was present at City's victory over Coventry, analyzing the English team in detail.
The in-depth study of the opponent is part of the Portuguese team's preparation for the European competition. Porto's scouts collected notes on the playing style, tactics, and key players of Pep Guardiola's team.
This is not the first time FC Porto has used this advanced scouting method. The Portuguese team's technical staff frequently use observers at games of potential opponents in European competitions.
The 2026/27 edition of the Champions League promises to be a significant challenge for FC Porto, who are looking to repeat the good performances they have had in recent seasons at the highest European level.
