Following a 2-2 draw with Sporting CP in Lisbon, Arouca are eager to return to winning ways and put an end to their three-game winless run. Los Lobos held the reigning champions to a thrilling draw and will take confidence from that performance, while midfielder Hyun-ju Lee is back from international duty but is unlikely to start. Arouca have been particularly strong at home, winning 60% of their last 10 matches and averaging 2.40 goals per game, with BTTS landing in 80% of those fixtures.
Estrela, on the other hand, aim to recover from a 2-0 defeat to Academico Viseu. Former Sevilla midfielder Joan Jordan is pushing for a start, while there are no fresh injury worries for the away side. Estrela have yet to lose on the road in the new Primeira Liga campaign and have been involved in some entertaining away games, averaging 4.80 goals per match. Os Tricolores have also scored 2.40 goals per away game, although they have conceded the same number.
Arouca are a real force to be reckoned with at home and leading the H2H record. Therefore, Home Win should be considered, alongside Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals (given Estrela’s 4.80-goal away average).
This Portugal Primeira Liga match will be played on Sunday 11 October 2026 at 20:30.
