Our prediction for this Portugal Primeira Liga match:
Arouca will be aiming to build on a morale-boosting victory over AVS when they host Estoril at Estadio Municipal de Arouca. With no fresh injury concerns, the hosts will be confident of extending their unbeaten run in front of home fans. Last time out these two sides met at this venue, Arouca secured a thrilling 4-3 victory, and another entertaining clash could be on the cards.
Estoril, meanwhile, have been struggling defensively in recent weeks. Os Canarinhos conceded five goals in their last two league outings, drawing 2-2 with Farense before suffering a 3-1 defeat to Sporting CP. To make matters worse for the visitors, defender Kevin Boma is suspended, leaving their already shaky defence further exposed. Given Arouca’s solid form and Estoril’s problems at the back, the hosts look well-positioned to claim all three points. Expect Arouca to take full advantage of their opponent’s weaknesses and secure a victory in front of their fans.
