Match preview
These teams have reason to believe in a great performance during the 2016-2017 season. The German team has been on the rise for two straight seasons, and their performance in last year's Bundesliga shocked more than one expert. With a couple of key additions up front, Die Werkself will try to show their skills in the domestic tournaments (Bundesliga & DFB-Pokal) and in the UEFA Champions League, just like they did last year.
The Aspirins shared the team's official picture on their Twitter feed.

On the other side of the pitch, Porto will be off to a fresh start after a disappointing end of the 2015-16 Primeira Liga. Their magnificent start wasn't enough to keep them hunting for the domestic title, and their quick exit from the UEFA Champions League & UEFA Europa League forced the team's execs to sack Julen Lopetegui as their coach. With Nuno Espiritu Santo taking over as the team's new boss, The Dragons will try to give their fans something to be proud of this year.
Here's a quick look at how Porto gets ready for this game.
