Our prediction for this Portugal Primeira Liga match:

Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 2-0
Rio Ave
Guimaraes will look to recover from a 3-0 loss to Benfica when they take on Rio Ave in the Primeira Liga round 31. Guimaraes want to retain fourth place in the standings and they are surely capable of beating Rio Ave in front of home fans. Venezuela forward Jesus Ramirez is pushing for a recall to the starting XI, while defender Toni Borevkovic is back from suspension.
Os Rioavistas, on the other hand, are stuck in the middle of the table with 33 points on their account. Rio Ave have little to play for in the twilight of the season and given their poor away record (3-2-10), there is a big value in betting on the home team. In their last meeting at Estadio D. Afonso Henriques, Guimaraes defeated Rio Ave and we predict that history is going to repeat itself. Defender Francisco Petrasso remains doubtful for the away team.
Highlighted Team (Guimaraes):
Vitoria Guimaraes have always been in the shadow of famous Portuguese sides Porto, Benfica and Sporting, but over the years they have established themselves as a top-table side in the Primeira Liga. Os Vimaranenses did well to win Taca de Portugal in the 2012/2013 season, wi the team beating Benfica in the final of the domestic cup.
Vitoria Guimaraes finished the 2016/2017 Primeira Liga campaign in fourth place in the standings and, as a result, they booked their place in the Europa League qualifiers. The Portuguese side will face the likes of Salzburg, Konyaspor and Olympic Marseille in Group I and they are seen as underdogs in their group. Vitoria Guimaraes welcome their rivals at Estadio D. Alfonso Henriques and the venue can hold up to 30.000 spectators.
Os Vimaranenses play their home games in white shirts and white shorts, whilst they wear black when playing on the road. Their neighbours Braga are considered Guimaraes’ fiercest rivals and the two teams face each other in the derby of Minho Province.
