This Saturday he could become the most successful manager in the history of FC Porto in the Invicta derby.

This Saturday, Estádio do Dragão can host another important episode in the already long history of matches between FC Porto and Boavista. If the Porto players beat Bessa’s “neighbor” again, as they did in the first round of the championship (5-0), Sérgio Conceição will stand out as the most successful coach of the Blue and White club in the Invicta derby.

The 46-year-old coach would then add eight triumphs over chess, one more than José María Pedroto and two more than Artur Jorge. With a difference for both: Conceição would reach this mark without losing or drawing against the boavisteiros, unlike “Mestre” and “Rei Arthur”, who needed to play 11 games to reach their respective records. More: Sérgio would still equal the absolute record of triumphs (eight) in the meeting that makes the city of Porto vibrate, this one, still in possession of “Zé do Boné”, as Pedroto was also known, who added to the seven triumphs of dragons another, on behalf of the panthers, in the 1975/76 season, when he beat (1-0) the team then trained by Branko Stankovic.

The seven victories obtained by Sérgio Conceição so far have been immaculate. FC Porto not only scored an average of 2.6 goals per game, but they always finished without suffering. The 1-0 was the shortest victory and occurred in the 2018/19 and 2019/20 seasons, both in Bessa, which, curiously, was also the stage of the most massive: 5-0 (2020/21). Last season, in Dragão, Porto won 4-0, in a derby played on a special date for the people of Porto: the night of São João.
