Our prediction for this Portugal Primeira Liga match:
Chaves and Portimonense face each other at Estadio Municipal de Chaves in what is expected to be a close Primeira Liga encounter. Os Valentes failed to win the previous five league matches and, no doubt, they are desperate to grab something from the relegation six-pointer. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team ahead of Sunday’s clash.
O Portimao, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form, with the team losing each of their last three league matches. Portimonense are desperate to escape the relegation zone and seeing that they will go for a victory as well, we are going to put our money on both teams to score. Forward Carlinhos misses out through suspension, but there are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team. When the two teams met at Estadio Municipal de Portimao earlier this term Portimonense defeated Chaves 2-1.
Highlighted Team (Portimonense):
Based in Portimao, Portimonense is a Portuguese football club that play home games at Estadio Municipal in Algarve. The capacity of the stadium that was opened in 1937 is 9,544. Portimonense welcome their rivals in black and white shirts and black shirts, whilst yellow is dominant colour of their away kit.
The black and whites finished the 1984/1985 Primeira Liga campaign in 5th position in the standings and, as a result, booked their place in the UEFA Cup. Portimonense did well to Partizan 1-0 on their debut in the European competition, but they suffered a heavy 4-0 loss to the famous Serbian club in the reverse fixture at Yugoslav National Army Stadium.
Fellow Algavre clubs Farense and Olhanense are considered the club’s main rivals. Jackson Martinez is one of the most notable footballers who played for the club. The Colombian attacker is considered one of the most successful attackers in the history of Porto as he scored 67 goals in 90 appearances for the Dragons in the Primeira Liga.
