The Primeira Liga is set to deliver an action-packed Sunday, featuring three thrilling matches.
Vizela faces off against Porto, Rio Ave takes on Farense, and Estrela Amadora clashes with Famalicao. Let’s dive into the predictions for these exciting encounters.
Vizela vs. Porto (Sunday, 8.30pm)
This Sunday, Vizela and Porto will go head to head at Estadio Do Vizela.
These two teams have had vastly different starts to the 2023-24 Primeira Liga season.
Vizela currently sits in 15th place with six points after the first eight matches, while Porto is third, just three points behind the league leaders, Sporting Lisbon.
- Our prediction: Vizela 1-2 Porto
Porto has been in excellent form since returning from the international break, and they can’t afford to drop more points this early in the season.
As strong favorites, we believe they will secure a fifth consecutive victory against Vizela.
- Our tipsters also anticipate an away win.
Rio Ave vs. Farense (Sunday, 3.30pm)
In this round nine encounter of the Primeira Liga, Rio Ave and Farense face off at the Estadio dos Arcos.
Both teams are looking to bounce back from their respective Taca de Portugal exits.
Farense has struggled in recent meetings with Rio Ave, failing to win any of the last five clashes since October 2020.
- Our prediction: Rio Ave 1-0 SC Farense
Following their cup exits, both Rio Ave and Farense will be hungry for a morale-boosting result.
Given Rio Ave’s historical advantage in this fixture and their home-field advantage, we expect them to defeat Farense, who have lost their last four away matches.
Estrela Amadora vs. Famalicao (Sunday, 6.00pm)
Estrela Amadora, fresh off reaching the fourth round of the Taca de Portugal, hosts Famalicao at the Estadio Jose Gomes.
Famalicao has struggled in their last three away games, making this an opportunity for Estrela to capitalize.
- Our prediction: Estrela Amadora 2-1 Famalicao
Estrela seems to have found their footing in recent weeks, and they will aim to continue their newfound form.
Famalicao’s troubles on the road give Estrela a slight edge, and we anticipate a narrow victory for the home team in front of their supporters.
Don’t miss these exciting Primeira Liga matches on Sunday, and stay tuned for the outcomes of these thrilling encounters.
