Prediction: 1-0
Nacional
Buoyed by a morale-boosting 2-0 win over Rio Ave, Boavista will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they face Nacional on Matchday 29. The Black and Whites are desperate to escape the relegation zone and they have no other option but to go all guns blazing at Nacional. Experienced forward Salvador Agra serves a one-game ban, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
Os Alvinegros, on the other hand, aim to recover from back-to-back losses to Santa Clara and Estrela. As Nacional have nothing to play for in the season finale, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the relegation-threatened hosts. Midfielder Djibril Soumare is back to Nacional’s starting XI after serving his one-game ban in the defeat to Estrela at the weekend. In their last meeting in Porto, Nacional defeated Boavista 1-0, meaning that the hosts are hungry for revenge.

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.
