Our prediction for this Portugal Primeira Liga match:
Alverca will be eager to record their first win of the season when they welcome Tondela to their FC Alverca Sports Complex on Friday evening. The newcomers have been struggling defensively at the start of the season, which is probably the main reason why home win should not be considered. Summer signing Chiquinho is a major doubt after picking up a knock in a 2-1 loss to Benfica before the international break, while Davy Gui is pushing for a start after scoring as a substitute against the Eagles.
Tondela, on the other hand, aim to put an end to their four-game winless run as well. Considering that both teams will go for a win in Friday’s encounter, we are tempted to place our bets on both teams to score. In their last meeting at the venue, the two sides played out a 1-1 draw. Angola international Ivan Cavaleiro is widely expected to return to Tondela’s starting eleven.
