Prediction: 1-1
Boavista
Farense and Boavista face each other at Estadio de Sao Luis in the Primeira Liga round 28 curtain-raiser. Os Leoes de Faro do not seem to be at their sharpest, with the team losing five of their last six league matches, but the bookies still see them as favourites to beat As Panteras in front of home fans. Facundo Caseres serves a one-game ban following his sending-off in a 2-1 loss to Arouca, while forward Elves Balde is pushing for a start.
Ricardo Paiva’s troops, on the other hand, played out a boring goalless draw with Rio Ave at the weekend. Boavista and Farense, though, seem to be evenly matched at the moment and we predict that they are going to share the spoils in the Primeira Liga round 28. There are no fresh injury concerns in the visiting team ahead of the trip to Faro.
Highlighted Team (Boavista):
Founded on August 1, 1903, Boavista are a Portuguese club that welcome their rivals at Estadio do Bessa. The capacity of the venue is 28,263 and it was built back in 1911. As Panteras (The Panthers) are well known for their black and white shirts and white is the dominant colour of their away kit.
Famous Fellow city club Porto are considered Boavista’s main rivals and the two teams face each other in O Derby da Invicta and there have always been fireworks in clashes between the two local rivals. A Panteras did well to win their first and only Primeira Liga trophy in the 2000/2001 season, with the team finishing the campaign only one point clear of Porto.
Boavista have five Taca de Portugal trophies (1974/75, 1975/76, 1978/79, 1991/92, 1996/97), with the team winning Supertaca de Portugal three times (1979, 1992, 1997). Jose Bosingwa, Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink and Nuno Gomes are the notable footballers who played for Boavista in the past, to name just a few.
