Prediction: 1-2
Boavista
Saturday’s football game at Estadio Municipal de Arouca pits together Arouca and Boavista. Arouca will be aiming to put an end to their three-game winless run and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against Boavista. The hosts are boosted by the return of trio Trezza – Fontan – Fukui, while forward Morlaye Sylla serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards.
The Black and Whites, on the other hand, suffered a heart-breaking loss to Porto in the local derby at the weekend. As a result, Boavista have minimal survival chances, but the hope dies last. As Arouca have nothing to play for in the last game of the season, we are tempted to place our bets on the rock-bottom side this time out. It has to be noted, though, that defender Osman Kakay is banned for the visiting team.
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.
