HUGE CHANCE ATLETICO!
Wow! How have Atletico Madrid not taken the lead here? Carrasco does really well to beat two players as he drives toward the byline before pulling a cross back for Lemar who flicks it on to the arriving Greizmann at the back post, who has an open goal to aim at but can't quite connect!
20'
Half a chance for Pepe!
The Porto veteran makes a run at the far post as he looks to latch onto Vitinha's deep cross, but he can't quite get there.
17'
We're yet to see either team have a proper attack on goal in what has so far been a fairly cagey affair.
Both sides are looking to apply pressure but are struggling to string a pass together in the final third.
16'
The atmosphere is certainly building here as the game goes on! Porto fans are getting right behind their side.

Early change for Atletico!
A tearful Luis Suarez is replaced by Matheus Cunha. It's unclear whether it's an injury or a tactical change...
...could that be his final Champions League appearance?

Atletico look to break down the left-hand side but Yannick Carrasco's attempted cross is blocked as Porto retain possession.
9'
Both sides are looking to establish a rhythm here.
Atletico are enjoying most of the possession early on, but have given the ball away far too easily a few times now.
5'
Luis Suarez attempts a pass towards Greizmann in the Porto penalty area, but it's blocked and behind for a corner which is comfortably cleared.
3'
Late challenge from Porto's Evanilson!
Koke wants him in the referee's book after a strong challenge on Thomas Lemar, but it's only a free kick.
This one is going to be a fiery affair!
2'
Antoine Griezmann commits the first foul of the game.

Porto are in form
On the other hand, tonight's host's Porto will be looking to continue their good run of form.
They've won their last two league games, and despite a 2-0 loss at Anfield in the last Champions League matchday, they did manage to salvage a point at AC Milan at the beginning of November.
Porto are in control of this one, can they get the job done?

It's not great reading for Madrid fans after Simeone's side struggled to find the net in their last two European fixtures, they must score tonight to have any chance of qualification...
19:18
It's all on the line for these two sides tonight, who are expected to provide a fantastic contest to determine the outcome of Group B!
What you need to know:
  • Liverpool have already won the group, but the fate of Porto, AC Milan and Atletico Madrid are yet to be sealed.
  • Madrid are currently bottom of the group, but only a point separates them and second placed Porto, with the pair facing off tonight.
  • A home win will see the Portuguese side qualify, but a draw will be enough if Milan fail to beat Liverpool in Italy.
  • Atletico must claim all three points tonight, and for Liverpool to make it six wins out of six by beating AC Milan if they want to qualify.
