FC Porto has maintained strong competitive form in Portuguese football. In the League Cup, the team advanced to the semifinals following a 1-0 victory over Academico Viseu, secured by a penalty kick from Santiago Gimenez. During this period, coach Francesco Farioli noted that player Oskar Pietuszewski was sidelined with minor recurring injuries. In league play, FC Porto extended their undefeated streak with a 2-1 away victory against Vitoria Guimaraes. Despite conceding an early goal to Borja Sainz in the 38th minute, a second-half equalizer from Alanzinho in the 77th minute was followed by a late winning goal from Martim Fernandes in the 86th minute. This victory allowed Porto to maintain their lead at the top of the table during the 11th round of the Portuguese Liga. The win marks the club's 11th consecutive victory, keeping them five points ahead of second-placed Benfica and bringing them closer to the historic record of 13 consecutive wins set in the 1939/40 season. The match presented significant injury concerns. Jan Bednarek was forced to leave the pitch in the 66th minute after being struck in the face by a ball, triggering concussion protocols. However, recent reports indicate there are no major concerns regarding his health, and he is expected to join the Polish national team training camp. Additionally, Borevkovic sustained a head impact during the match, also requiring medical protocols. Other injury concerns included young Brazilian winger Gabriel Mec, who suffered a left thigh muscle injury expected to sideline him for several weeks. Regarding the lineup, Polish players Jan Bednarek and Jakub Kiwior both started the match. While Kiwior completed the full 90 minutes, he received low ratings from some Portuguese media outlets following a mistake that contributed to the opponent's equalizer.
