Our prediction for this Portugal Primeira Liga match:
Following a goalless draw with Moreirense, Famalicao will look to return to winning ways in Primeira Liga when they face Nacional on Sunday afternoon. Os Azuis e Brancos failed to win the last three league matches, but they are still seen as hot favourites to beat Nacional in front of home fans. Head coach Armando Evangelista should have a full squad at his disposal.
Tiago Margarido’s troops, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 3-0 loss to Braga, which is probably the main reason why we are going to bet on Famalicao. In their last encounter at the venue Famalicao defeated Nacional 3-0, which is yet another reason why we are going to bet on the home side. Both Thomas and Butzke are pushing for a start after the duo came off the bench in the last league match, speaking of the visiting side.
Highlighted Team (Famalicao):
Founded on August 21, 1931, Famalicao are a Portuguese football club that compete in the Primeira Liga. The colour of their home kit is white, with the team wearing blue shirts and blue shorts when playing on the travels.
