Our prediction for this Portugal Primeira Liga match:
After failing to make life difficult for Braga at the weekend, Estoril will look to get back on course when they take on Portimonense on Matchday 28. Estoril did well to beat Gil Vicente thanks to Marques’s goal in their last home fixture, which is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of Saturday’s clash. Right-back Delos is likely to drop to the bench after failing to impress in the 4-1 loss to Braga, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
O Portimao, on the other hand, failed to win the previous six league fixtures, and given their dreadful losing run on the road, we predict that the hosts are going to pick up all three points from the match. As for the visiting team, Lucas Ventura returns to the starting XI after serving his one-game ban in a 2-2 draw with Rio Ave.
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.
