ALSA have three direct buses on their timetable that day. Simpler than train which involves a change.

ALSA is a station or the bus company??
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

Bus company. This is their website. They use the Spanish version of the name - Oporto - rather than Porto. https://www.alsa.com/en/web/bus/home

And do you have any advice or experience in getting from the Porto airport to Valença? My first night to begin my trip is in Tui, Spain!

ALSA also do buses direct from Porto airport to Valença. Search using the link I posted before.
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.

The train from SdC to Porto can be confusing as last time I looked you had to book the Spanish portion and the Portuguese portion separately. see https://www.rome2rio.com/map/Santiago-de-Compostela/Porto#r/Train
I've always taken the Alsa bus but one of these days I'll take the train, overnight in Vigo and continue on.

Bus is simple and straightforward. I took the bus from SdC to Porto last week. Travel by bus is often quicker than via trains.
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
