Our prediction for this Portugal Primeira Liga match:
Farense will be aiming to record their third win of the season when they take on Gil Vicente in the Primeira Liga round 13. The rock-bottom side are fighting to survive in the Portuguese elite division, but they are on a very difficult quest. Midfielder Claudio Falcao, who suffered an injury in the 2-0 loss to Portimonense, is unlikely to feature against Gil Vicente. Ricardo Soares’s men, on the other hand, sit in the middle of the table ahead of Matchday 13.
Gil Vicente head into the match following a goalless draw with Belenenses, and, no doubt, they would be happy with the share of spoils with Farense as well. Diogo remains in the recovery room, but the Brazil defender should be the only absentee in the away team. The two teams meet in the Primeira Liga for the first time since May 2002.
