Our prediction for this Portugal Primeira Liga match:
Chaves and Pacos Ferreira go head to head at Estadio Municipal de Chaves in what is expected to be an interesting Primeira Liga game. Chaves are eyeing a spot in the Conference League and they have no other option but to go all guns blazing at Ferreira. Steven Vitoria is back from suspension, while Jonathan Arriba is a major doubt and he will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
Os Castores, on the other hand, are desperate to avoid automatic relegation, but given their anything but good form, home win should be considered. Ferreira experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 4-0 loss to Sporting CP and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Os Valentes’ party at Estadio Municipal. As for the visiting team, both Butzke and Pires are pushing for a start as Cesar Peixoto should opt to make changes to the team that suffered the heavy loss to the capital club.
Highlighted Team (Ferreira):
Founded on April 5, 1950, Pacos de Ferreira are a Portuguese football club who play their home games at Estadio da Mata Real. The venue can hold up to 9,077 people and it was opened in October 7, 1973. Os Castores are well known for their yellow shirts and green shorts, with the team wearing white and black kit when playing on the travels.
Pacos de Ferreira have yet to win the Primeira Liga trophy, but they did well to make it to the Taca de Portugal final in the 2008/2009 season. Os Castores faced Porto in the title game, with the Dragons attacker Lisandro Lopez scoring the only game of the match.
Two seasons later Pacos de Ferreira faced Benfica in the Taca da Liga final, with the Eagles lifting the trophy. Wolverhampton forward Diogo Jota is one of notable footballers who started their senior careers at Pacos de Ferreira.
