Prediction: 1-2
Santa Clara
Struggling Boavista will be looking to put an end to their dreadful losing run when they face Santa Clara on Matchday 24. The Black and Whites have been totally out of form of late and, as a result, they are seen as No. 1 candidates for relegation. As important midfielder Reisinho misses out through suspension, we are not tempted to put our money on the home side.
Santa Clara, on the other hand, aim to retain fifth place in the standings. Even though the Eagles have been having their ups and downs in recent weeks, away win should be considered as Boavista are running down a blind alley. The good news for the away team is that defender Sidney Lima is available for selection after serving his one-game ban in a goalless draw with Estrela. In the first half of the season, Santa Clara defeated Boavista 1-0.
Highlighted Team (Boavista):
Founded on August 1, 1903, Boavista are a Portuguese club that welcome their rivals at Estadio do Bessa. The capacity of the venue is 28,263 and it was built back in 1911. As Panteras (The Panthers) are well known for their black and white shirts and white is the dominant colour of their away kit.
Famous Fellow city club Porto are considered Boavista’s main rivals and the two teams face each other in O Derby da Invicta and there have always been fireworks in clashes between the two local rivals. A Panteras did well to win their first and only Primeira Liga trophy in the 2000/2001 season, with the team finishing the campaign only one point clear of Porto.
Boavista have five Taca de Portugal trophies (1974/75, 1975/76, 1978/79, 1991/92, 1996/97), with the team winning Supertaca de Portugal three times (1979, 1992, 1997). Jose Bosingwa, Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink and Nuno Gomes are the notable footballers who played for Boavista in the past, to name just a few.
