Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 0-0
Guimaraes
Famalicao and Vitoria Guimaraes, the two teams who are almost level on points in the Primeira Liga table, face each other at Estadio Municipal de Famalicao on Matchday 8. Os Azuis e Brancos aim to extend their unbeaten run to five games, but this match will be anything but a walk in the park for the home side. Both Chiquinho and Jhonder Cadiz are sidelined through suspension, while Theo Fonseca continues to miss out with an ACL problem.
Alvaro Pacheco’s troops, on the other hand, desperately needed a win against Estoril and they managed to get one, with the team regaining a much-needed confidence. Famalicao, though, are tough to beat at home and we predict that the two sides are going to share the spoils in Sunday’s clash. Both Ricardo Mangas and Mikel Villanueva are out of contention with injuries.

Vitoria Guimaraes have always been in the shadow of famous Portuguese sides Porto, Benfica and Sporting, but over the years they have established themselves as a top-table side in the Primeira Liga.
