Porto also competed in the 2017–18 Taça da Liga and the 2017–18 Taça de Portugal; in both competitions, they reached the semi-finals but were eliminated by Sporting CP after a penalty shootout.

In UEFA competitions, Porto participated for the 7th consecutive and 22nd overall time in the UEFA Champions League group stage, a record shared with Barcelona and Real Madrid. They advanced to the round of 16 as group runners-up, behind Beşiktaş, where they were eliminated by Liverpool.
