Our prediction for this Portugal Primeira Liga match:
Monday’s football game between Belenenses and Famalicao will bring down the curtain on day 33 of the 2021/2022 Primeira Liga campaign. O Belem face a must-win situation against Famalicao as they are five points behind the safe zone, and, one thing is for sure, the hosts are going to leave their hearts on the field. Both Sandro Raniere and Sphephelo Sithole are banned for the match, while Safira is a major doubt after limping off with injury in a 1-0 loss to Braga.
The visitors, on the other hand, secured the elite division survival thanks to a 3-1 win over Estoril. Since Belenenses want this win more than Famalicao, we predict that the visitors are going to return home empty-handed. As for the away side, all Ivan Jaime, David Tavares, and Ruben Lima should miss out through injuries.
