Prediction: 1-1
Rio Ave
Following a more-than-expected loss to league leaders Sporting CP, Chaves will look to move away from the rock bottom when they face Rio Ave in the Primeira Liga round 18. Os Valentes are sitting in the ultimate position with only 11 points on their account and you should know that they suffered four defeats in the previous five league fixtures. As both Guima and Langa are on international duty, home win should not be considered.
Os Rioavistas, on the other hand, failed to spoil Benfica’s party in Lisbon at the weekend, with the team remaining in the relegation zone. Anyhow, both teams to score betting option should be considered this time out as both sides will go for a win in Sunday’s showdown. Rio Ave defender Aderllan Santos is banned for the match following his sending-off in the 4-1 defeat to the Lisbon Eagles.
