Match stats
Tuesday will be the first ever match-up between the two sides and against any side from Portugal.
Porto have not won in 16 fixtures away to English clubs.
What they said
Ranieri on substituting Mahrez and Vardy: "At that time the match was gone and I prefer to reserve them for the next match on Tuesday against Porto.
"It's unbelievable what happened because we start very well in the first 20 minutes, it was our match.
"But suddenly we switch off, it's not possible to receive three goals on corners that means you aren't concentrating."
