anyone else anticipating this? i think we'll get to see what Porto are really made of. i know they're losing Falcao, but there's still loads of talent on that squad, plus we might get a glimpse of some of the highly touted youngsters against top competition (James Rodriguez, Steven Defour, Juan Iturbe, etc.)

idk, maybe im the only one intrigued by the matchup and everyone's just expecting barca to play them off the pitch as usual....

Hulk will worry me.

They will have to play on the counter and him in open ground and space to run into...frightening...Abidal needs to be on point.

Walter probably will start up front, he can cause a few surprises.

Dont be surprised if Varela keeps Dani Alves somewhat pinned back either.

I think with barca just playing two very tough matches they won't be shocked if Porto preforms well.

I feel barca will use there new signings plus promoted players so it might be an even match.

I think though barca will win but hope porto surprises Very Happy
