Prediction: 1-1
Famalicao
Boavista and Famalicao take on each other at Estadio do Bessa Seculo XXI in the closing match of Sunday’s program. Boavista aim to recover from a heavy 3-0 loss to Sporting CP, but this game will be anything but a walk in the park for the hosts. Both Laurenco and Watai are pushing for recalls after the duo came off the bench at the weekend.
Meanwhile, Famalicao aim to build on a 1-0 win over Casa Pia. Joao Pedro Sousa’s troops are a real force to be reckoned with at home, but given their difficulties on the road, we do not believe that they are capable of grabbing more than one point from the match. Alex Dobre is banned for the match, while fellow midfielders Luis Rodriguez and Theo Fonseca are out of contention with injuries. Denilson is widely expected to lead the line for the visiting side.
